God's Galaxy

Flickering flames of scalding heat,
embers red with fiery strength.
Fly away pieces melt away earthly desire.
Body of fire fades with time.
Wooden fuel catches the light,
circle of friends share more than warmth.
Water poured to end the danger while
darkness spreads throughout the forest.
Diamonds sparkle beyond our finger tips.
Animals wake with a stomach to fill,
grace takes flight on the wings on an owl.
Moment gone in mere seconds of memory,
no matter the hearts of those around.
Remembered throughout time
for the yawn of life that starts the night.

"The Compassionate, The Merciful"

Bism'Allah
Al-Rahman
Al-Raheem
May His Scourge Sweep the Sands
May the corrupted earth be
Torn asunder
May the towers of the unbelievers
Crumble and Fall
And may the Souls of the
Faithful Rejoice
For Victory is Theirs

May these Glorious Plumes
Light the Sky
And warm the Heavens
May their Brilliance dim the Stars,
If only for a Moment,
Shrouding their Divine Grace:
A veil of Triumph
May this Holy Flame
Shine
In the Boundless Depths
Of Almighty Allah's
Eyes
And may the unbelievers
Cower in fear,
Illuminated by the Radiant Fire

Bism'Allah
Al-Rahman
Al-Raheem

Paradise Awaits

Challenge Everything

How do Humans advance ourselves?
We do it by challenging everything;
Things like Schools and Governments.
Schools used to teach the world was flat,
But Columbus didn't agree,
So he challenged that.
Don't stop there, what about the Government?
So what if they have lots of power,
That didn't stop the Founding Fathers.
So stand up for you beliefs,
Even if you're the only one.
