A Muslim boy with a clock Is seen as a terrorist with a glock Maybe i'm right, maybe i'm wrong But if he were White, Asian, Hispanic or even Pacific Islander Nobody would of suspected anything. When are we going to stop fearing an entire race for only a portion radical and illogical ways of treating others? I don't tolerate people who behead others if they don't agree with their religion I don't agree with the repressive governments that control everyone and stone them for minor misdemeanors There are good men out there fighting this evil that has plagued their homelands I'm all for ending terrorism of all kinds But let's stop terrorism of innocents too Sure, i'm afraid of what the radicals will do to their own people, my people and the rest of the world But i'll be dammed if i treated somebody from the Middle East like a monster when i don't even know who they are If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern girl The Syrians girls wouldn't have an improved education If it wasn't for a Middle Eastern man fending off the Taliban and risking his entire village to keep Marcus Littrell alive He would of been KIA a long time ago. What about the ones who fought and died for America? Nobody ever mentions them The media wants me to hate them all, but i laugh and shake my head Warped minds trying to warp others I only see the ones who want to do us harm, and the ones who want to live peacefully and away from a life of hell Brothers and sisters, just a different culture and skin color I'm sorry if America seems racist or hateful, but i'm proud to be the one who throws those two words in the trash Because i'm not afraid to speak my mind And i welcome everyone here America is everyone's home. If only the Soviet Union never invaded Afghanistan If only the people were not scared To be free like America. Unity for all, Religious differences and Cultures alike. I hope one day a Muslim man or Woman can walk down an American street without being labeled as a terrorist. I hope one day these repressive governments fall into the hands of democracy And we start the Age of Unity again.

An ethnic Tajik A Sunni Muslim from the valley of Panshir He stood and fought when danger was near He fought proudly with his Muslim brothers For the way of life they held so dear Soviet attack helicopters Tanks too They attacked in vain Ahmad has a heart so true He was going to warn the West Of the 9/11 attacks Osama put a price on his head I wish the Lion would come back Death to communism Afghanistan is the true Muslim's land The Taliban are evil And belong buried in the sand Ahmad Massoud's spirit can never die To Allah His spirit will fly!

Ahmed Shah Massoud (God bless the Mighty Lion of Panshir!)
You hide in plain sight as does day when engulfed by night For darkness is simply…. The absence of light You claim to have special enlightenment And that your knowledge is for the better good of the people Pledge your allegiance and your success will be imminent Break your pledge and your death will be discrete So why would you become part of something so “elite”? With only one thing in mind; to see the human race in defeat. An interminable amount of subliminal messages Hinting at events that are destructive, demoralizing, and deceptive. 9/11… was it really an act of terrorism? Or was it just an evil plot… something you guys expected? Al-quaeda and the Taliban… roaming around in the lands of Iran But on the land I walk some say it’s a misperception Just a façade in our brain so the government secrets are protected. Michael Jackson… and the Kennedy assassination Were they both untimely events in American history? Ghandi, The King, Malcolm X, Princess Diana, Shakur, Paul, Marley, the Kennedys’, Lennon, Fredinand, Lincoln!! All of whom were either at your feet or tried to make your secret secrete These deaths… from assassination to suicide… were all… “unfortunate” to the human eye? Or were they “fortunate” for the Eye of the Beholder? But why go to such great extent to have these powerful and influential people wiped from the human race? To keep a secret that has been soooo well kept for hundreds of years? A secret society that is not so discrete… anymore Hidden in plain sight and away from the human eye….. Trying to keep a disguise that will lead to our eventual demise You aren’t doing the world any favors By keeping an explicitly intricate order in store You’re favoring your own world under one order By intricately deceiving the minds of innocent citizens So, you hide in plain sight, the light of the earth A light you hope one day becomes permanently dark Cause once again, darkness is only the absence of light. With no light, we will be forced at the feet of your might Despite a fight, with no light and your might, we’re all just mites stuck on your flight of new world order. Well let me just end on this… **** THE ILLUMINATI!

Pen scratches the paper Paper flutters in the breezes Voice shouts Suddenly a gun fires The Taliban have their guns In my hand I have my pen On my desk I have my paper Loudly my voice speaks up Go ahead Shoot me I won't stop fighting You can take my pen Take this paper from my hands You won't take my voice though

There are clocks turning backwards there are rights being lost, you might think you’re unaffected but things are worse than you thought. For your wives and your daughters are now property of the state; they’ll be tracking their cycles and they better not be late. For your women are now watched by the militarized state; The old laws have been eradicated, cause it’s freedom the republican fundamentalists hate, and like the Taliban, your freedoms they’re taking. You better vote soon, before it’s too late, cause your rights are disintegrating. Come fathers and husbands throughout the land let’s give them an electoral beating that they’ll understand your vote is your voice so please take a stand. If the freedom of privacy's worth saving, you better vote soon, before it’s too late, cause your rights they’re eliminating.

Negotiating with ****** You can't. Even if, He disguises himself as Bashar-al-Assad, Taliban, Al Shabaab, Hassan Rouhani, Or that ole mass murderer, Now not such a bad guy, We could left him alone, Cause he didn't have WMD, Saddam Hussein, He just mass murdered, The old fashioned way. They thirst for the blood of mine. And when satiated, they will come for you. There will be no Mass said Over our mass graves. Do not pretend to lead, When all you seek is avoid. The historians will seek you out And label you coward, Chamberlin. Shall we meet at the soccer stadium Called Ghazi, for some ice cream And a public execution or two? Let's make it a woman, for the extra satisfaction? A perfect place, conducive for relaxed negotiations! Woe us/me, when our moral compass points only Downward, Into the bloodied earth, Where we will soon enough be buried too.

An Aussie digger killed in battle but disinclined to die returns to the front line as a spectre wearing a slouch hat and a larrikin grin. Draped in a tattered flag he yells 'Remember Korea, lads and Vietnam and how we went all the way with Menzies and L.B.J.' 'Don't forget Gallipoli men or the fight for peace with George in Iraq and Afghanistan against Al Qaeda and the Taliban. 'Defeat the enemy mates to secure the future as our heritage of service patriotism and pride in U. S foreign policies.'

"Don't work with the Americans." "Don't help the Americans." This is what some of the Afghan interpreters are saying After their poor treatment by the United States government The Afghan Interpreters are angry And they have a right to be After most U.S. troops have left Some are stuck hiding in Kabul The Taliban tell the local people That they are infidels The Taliban **** many interpreters The Afghan Interpreters struggle Only about 30% get their visa Some only have enough money To make it to Greece They live together Barely any money No hot water Persecuted by the local police One interpreter saved the life of an American soldier The soldier helped him put together his visa packet His visa took three years!!! This interpreter had fought with them for 7 years Had saved the lives of five American soldiers Had been the personal interpreter for 12 U.S. senators One interpreter Did not leave on a flight approved by the U.S. He had to leave on the next flight Because the Taliban  was threatening to **** him Thankfully the U.S. soldier Had a place for him to stay And could give him some money The soldier promised him He would help him get resettlement benefits Even though the U.S. government stated He was not eligible to receive his benefits Because he did not arrive on a U.S. approved flight The Vice Interviewer Learns from the lawyers working for the interpreters That there is a massive bureaucracy The Department of Defense doesn't consider them veterans The soldier tried to get a bill introduced That would streamline the process And increases the number of visas To help the Afghan Interpreters No legislation regarding immigration was introduced Because of bickering among Republican members The program ran out in September of 2014 So now thousands will be stuck in Afghanistan One interpreter that was interviewed Was stuck in Afghanistan Working as a taxi driver Fearing for his life Many of the Taliban prisoners Have been released Now he fears for his life He doesn't know what will happen 6,000 applicants For 280 available visas As of July 2014 May God bless the Afghan interpreter Trying to live his life in peace May God bless the Afghan people It seems things never change for them

DONT DO DRUGS KIDS
Surfs Up In distant lands From Kuwait Bay To Afghanistan Arabia To Pakistan We all high five As we hang ten The ladies there With burkas on Will grab their boards And surf along The Taliban With weapons raised Are now into The surfing craze The Saudi king Is wondering With his wives What they're missing So he goes and buys Daytona Beach And has it shipped To the Middle East Where there is no more Need to fight As they sing Beach Boy tunes By beach fire light They're all hanging loose In the Middle East Even the Palestinians And the Israelis Who knew surfing would Bring so much peace To the troubled times In the Middle East

Surfs Up!
The dying The dead The forgotten The unlived dreams. She was 12 He was 8 They trailed west But just became meat One ***** beaten, ***** and ate The other just ate. Shaved memories of something Something said by somebody Oh, a little girl Said the sun would whirl And the moon would bow Means nothing to a dead and cooked cow. They make concentric circles In and out The Taliban Spreading goodness wherever they go... Just after eating A little boy and girl.

Thousands Are Dying
With eyes of black obsidian And eagle's beak of nose Black turban of the Taliban Worn everywhere he goes, Warrior of God's mountainside Mujaheddin, known by name, Pashto is his verbal tongue And Allah's quest, his fame. Razored knife in braided belt Long"Jezail"musket points to sky, A gimlet glint to garnet gaze One thoughtless move , you die. Gliding fast from rock to rock Gazelle like in his easy grace, Silent as an adder's strike Assassin black with turbaned face. For centuries invaders came To vanquish this stark land, Persians,Romans, Russians And British redcoats tried their hand. And recently the Yankees Came with automated war, To find themselves engulfed And fleeing for the exit door. Inexorable Afghanistan Has bleached their bones as one Vendetta for the insult While there's air to breath and gun. Like Shah Massoud, the warlords Descend from mountain cave To slaughter all who venture Be they terrified or brave. Tribally disconnected From Islamabad to Kabul, Tajik versus Pashtun Versus Koranic Islam's rule. No prisoners are taken, The women always use their knives And ravines echo shockingly As tortured slowly lose their lives. But the sunsets are glorious Valley mists by morning rise And row by row of fractured peaks Rise in grandeur to blue skies. And the children croon to goat herds As they graze high meadow's green And above the taloned goshawk glides Ever watchful and unseen. Hulks of Russian gun ships Litter valleys and the plain And the ghosts of many nations Walk these dusty roads of shame. For the legacy of the Afghans Is a ****** litany of war And the road to their tomorrow Is paved with promises of more.

aristophanes "lysistrata" cover
Santa Fe, Texas May 18, 2018 welcome to America. where there had been 11 school shootings before the end of january of 2018. welcome to America where the mentality of the attacker is the problem, and not the system. welcome to America where a 17 year old Pakistani girl was killed in her school among 9 other beautiful souls. welcome to America, Sabika which was greeted to you nearly six months ago where you arrived in the "land of hopes and dreams" to learn and grow and achieve. welcome to America the country that showed promise from the looming Taliban threats in Karachi, your hometown. welcome to America the country that you were going to help save Pakistan by building stronger US - Pakistan relationships and showing women empowerment by being (possibly) the second female prime minister of Pakistan. never again would you watch fireworks explode in the sky on August 14 never again would you count up your money on Eid never again would you eat your mom's biryani on a hot summer day. welcome to America, Sabika Sheikh your hopes and dreams were alive and floating in the land you gave your heart to and the land that would take it away. - a.g.

in loving memory of Sabika Sheikh
A lone Muslim weeps alone Mind entirely westernized Heart in the Middle East Shown by his father how to love With faith of course And to find peace with himself A country built on blind pride Unfortunately yields ideal life Four planes taking ****** detours Captained by servants of Allah To die as martyrs in His name The lone Muslim sits in a classroom Silence during the 12th anniversary of 9/11 A peaceful religion forever stained The teacher prints out pictures of Muhammed And hands one to the Muslim with a smile Almost asking for retaliation Every night he prays to the clouds Allahu-Akbar Allahu-Akbar Identical with cries of the Taliban Irony fills the air As pictures of Muhammed come to mind A lone Muslim surrounded by smiling bigots Who can't help but ask if Jihad exists Or question if Ramadan works Judge his every move And deny their prejudice A lone Muslim weeps alone As he remembers the day he lost his heart The day conformity was shunned A man rejected from love due to religion Turns into a terrorist And begins to walk with a suicide vest Peace and love for everything Now replaced by guns and hate Political parties staining beautiful thoughts Preaching American hate and Muslim supremacy Things Allah would be proud of My religion will always be stained "Allah forbids you not With regard to those Who fight you not for Faith Nor drive you out of your homes From dealing kindly and justly with them For Allah loves those who are just"
