They Call Us Heretics

They Call Us Heretics
Originally uploaded by firozeshakirphotographerno1

the shia-sunnis want to
live in peace
different sects
different customs
different rituals
allahs house made
up of several bricks
but the radicals
the wahhabis
the jammatis
the salafis
with sectarian hate
vested interests
do not want us to intemix
so we shias
they call us heretics
allah ho akbar
cybernetic hate
a badly smudged negative
muslims love killing muslims
unending conflicts
mosques turned to
terrorist dens
children turned to
unwilling jehadis
mullahs as gangsters
is what the lal masjid
depicts
the rest of the Islamic world
in utter silence
their impotency affix
survival of their own
kingdoms
a thought
only a guilty
conscience pricks
what next?
doctors turned killers
new surprises
from the same old bag of tricks
