Ya MUTAKABBIR

                                                                                (invoking Ultimate Greatness)


You've got one eye & a double tongue
a single ear & a million hands.
What a power! What a man!

Grabbing heaven, cuddling hell,
preaching rights & spreading fights,
reteaching democracy
& working on your tyranny,
those billboards of humanity,
you're ripping them to shreds,
articulating all the truths
you're sentencing to death:
you're prancing round in cultured shoes
& stomping on our heads.


You talk about renewal
while you put it on hold.

Your news is our blues:
you build your web
& we're all dead.

You're in greed & we're in need.
You pick fights with our friends.
You get your way & we just die.
You’re riding on the bullet
& we're drowning in your vomit.

You think you've got your heaven
making profit in our hell.
