A poem from a Muslim, whose heart aches.

  ABDULLAH

Another son of Abdullah was killed yesterday,
He was fighting the hounds attacking his place;
He was fighting the hounds attacking his freedom.
But he was declared wanted and a terrorist,
Because he defended his possession, his faith.

Another daughter of Abdullah was raped yesterday,
The hounds were all over her because she was chaste.
She wanted dignity and purity,
So they said she was harboring a terrorist;
I don't understand how Abdullah bears all this.

Once more Abdullah was beaten and disgraced,
Not one but many more like him;
But his brothers world over woke up,
Read the news next morning and were all praise,
Thankful to the hounds for sparing their skins.

                                     From a Muslim whose heart aches.
