An Etymology for Dialogue
An Etymology for Dialogue
Our lands have been violated by unspeakable acts
We have gone too far, it’s too late to retract
the blood that has spilled, the lives that have passed
we are being played in a theatre of a despicable farce
We must forbid division to enter our heart
Our leaders have turned lies into art
We fast the same month, we worship one God
Do you not find this cannibalism particularly odd
The agenda to dismantle is aimed at our deen
We must be more than pawns to be played in this scene
The Islamic Poetry of Abu Zainadeen
