Bag of Floss

Bag of Floss

A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

How people can the inspiration behind so many belief systems

"

Pink rubber

Blue eyes

Blood pouring from a mothers womb

 

Feet first

Head last

The scorpion rises

 

Death she brings

Ignorance no more

Truths light shines

 

False gods die

Idols smashed

Spirit of Abraham moves forward

 

Prophet speaks

Few listing

Traditions are clung to by, those who are not spiritual

 

System born

System dies

God hears all prayers

 

Laughter

Tears

One is always one

 

Silent words

Angelic flames

Meditation is the key

 

Young women

Old men

No one cares until centuries pass

 

Peace

War

Decide

 

One God

Many people

Take no branches from the tree

 

Circle complete

Kufi worn

Still the symphony can be heard

 

Pink ribbon- peace

Blues sky- war

Decide
