Fraternity Humanity

Fratricide,
cousin to genocide,
Traverses a well-known desert in this world.
Only God forgives his most egregious trespasses;
In his attempt to mimick God's love,
he attempts to reconcile with divine forgiveness;
We often fail.


Military whores beg for more, despite a change in tactical defeat;
While the eyes of sad seeds bleed the last of their youthful virginity,
A vagabond scrounges through the remnants of Babylon;
Callous feet cross deserts soaked in the sweat of fanatical reverence.


Good Christians say the Lord’s Prayer on Sunday morning five-times,
on their families' most prized hand-woven prayer rugs:
The call: “There is no God but God…”
Listen carefully;
You’ll also hear and see the same,
after a meatless feast at Shabbat dinner.


Madmen in caves are venerated by their enemies,
as they are martyred in their lifetime.
The Base, from which they operate,
now launches ships which have gusts from the Westerlies in their sails;
The Easterlies are no longer a primary mode of transportation, or concern.
The Students, they have their movement; it grows beyond mud huts and tents.
O’ Solomon, The Wise, your people need you.


From the holiest of lands,
screams of blasphemy prophesize the end of days;
Fools refuse to confront the heretics in their mist,
for fear of being left in the cold... or worse.
In the streets of Amman, a marriage was performed,
not a union of man and wife, but of lunacy and insanity;
I offer my prayers and condolences to the family of the cinemas’ great messenger.


The wandering peoples, who none will take in, are used to prove a point;
The legitimacy of a particular movement rests upon their grief.
Only God knows the consequences of such abuse;
Hate turns in unintended directions.
Like patient children, we wait for the sound of a trumpet;
Ever read Revelations?
