Echoes from the heart: In the name of their 'god'

She set out to serve her fatherland

Laden with child…pain and discomfort she endured

Fighting for a nation’s dream – democracy

Till they came thundering

Almajiris…uneducated, incited and hungry bastards

Chanting words of Allah...a word they surely do not understand

Knives and clubs in hand

Slitting her throat in successive swipes

Carving her bulging stomach till the unborn comes gushing out

For them, a necessary sacrifice for the glory of their ‘god’

They said it was safe

They promised to protect

For once he chose to look past their incessant greed and believe

Men so selfish…they forget what duty and honor means

Until the fireworks went off

In pain his eyes endured this horrible movie clip

Limbs and torsos shredded

His life’s work….his perseverance….his patience

His love….his wife….his kids

Taken from him without a moment’s hesitation

All for the glory of their ‘god’

They call themselves nationalists

Elder statesmen…scoffs…more like deluded and poisonous extremists

Men with hate and low intelligence

Rousing an even more uneducated nation to violence at their failures

Making inflammatory remarks instead of spreading peace

Openly supporting terrorism and advocating for their protection

Holding this nation to ransom yet they claim to want to save it

The Rufs’ and Haris’

Hatching a grand plan to force the nation into religious slavery

All for the glory of their ‘god’

They say it is a religion of peace and tolerance

I’ll show you ingrates what tolerance is

Offering safety to your brothers in our homes while you decapitate ours

Leaving your place of worship standing while you burn down ours

Treating you with respect while you dehumanize us

Respecting your beliefs while you go witch-hunting ours

Then again, all this you do for the glory of your ‘god’

How long do you think this will continue?

For surely at some point….the commandment of love would fade away

Giving way to a hate beyond the dimensions of love

This forced marriage shall fall apart

The hunter metamorphosing into the game

In that moment, remember ye all you have done

For your sins shall never go unpunished

In our lifetime or those of your future generations!
