The slender pencils of areca palms
Rose out of the darkness, helpless sentinels;
The following was Friday, sacred day
Of prayer: holiday and burial.
But he did not die for Him, but for some
Other god men have made; they call it Demos.
The worship of a false god, introduced
By pale folk from the west, has robbed our souls.
The prophet (on whom be peace) founded our
Civilisation: many talents had
He, including military rule, shared by
Beloved khalifas; for they surely wanted
This boy to live: rule by the sword we think
Barbaric for the west seduces us to kill.
