The poet speaks and I draw close to hear his latest words. Perhaps, I remind myself, his words may inspire me to write another page into my own works, or perhaps, his words will remain amongst mankind far after we depart and with such thoughts, I release my mind from useless thoughts. I have known of men, not [...]

The Poet Speaks

Justice
May 23, 2008
Justice:
He said, freedom is between the finger and the trigger
Between the mind and the soul,
So I asked, what is Justice
Is it avoiding payments of zakat in order to purchase the latest Lexus
Oppressing the poor, spreading corruption and acting reckless
He said, don’t be foolish
Such statements will be taken out of contents
Justice is free from false [...]
Set me Free!
May 16, 2008
Set me free to leave the land of immorality,
Before I burst and become a menace to society
Suicidal thoughts feed the body like the Range Rover is fed by gasoline
Confusion graspes their minds as to why many posses extreme views from world issues
Fear firm in their hearts so they keep the soldiers of Allah close in [...]
I am a MAN
April 25, 2008
From the beginning,
my mother held me,
and said, “Mohamed is your name and that’s what it will be.
Remain patient my son and avoid envy.
You are a man, lead your family“
I took her advice and trained hard to be a marine
Converting my room into war-game scenarios practiced by the navy
Now my brothers and I have grown
and we fight [...]
21 Questions
April 24, 2008
Another page from Poetic Justice. 21 questions with limited answers. Space is not an issue but unfortunately time is of great essence. Which has forced me to reveal only the first few verses from the lastest poetic work.
Why does my body clash with the soul
Aggressively jumping on the attack
Forcing mediation from my part, while I stand [...]
Where are the Role Models
April 17, 2008
I open my eyes, only to realize, where are those men who will lead me to prosperity? I slip my feet into my Air Max and set off into the cold world, in search of a role model. Instead I find corruption, envy, hate, cowards, deceivers, liars and the worst of them all, the hypocrites. After a long [...]
Suffocated
April 13, 2008
Im suffocated, I just cant seem to breath
Mixed emotions got me thinking its time for me to leave
She spots me in my car and says, “we need to sit and talk”
I tell her just wait
Matter fact, STOP!
I got a lot of things on my mind so don’t push me off the line
She looks me with fiercefull [...]
Frozen in Time
April 13, 2008
Frozen in time
Overtaken by flashes of previous crimes
Have I paid the price
Or will I do the time
Only Allah knows and I continue to live life
Taking journeys through my mind
I’ve visited the people of Thamud and watched them as they commited crimes
While they uttered lies against themselves for one more night
And when morning came, destroyed is [...]
If Umar was Alive..this WOULDNT happen
April 3, 2008
Remember that man? The son of Khataab? The man with the overpowering body structure who demanded respect? The man who would walk around with a stick in his hands and rightfully hit those whom his judgment caused the punishment to descend upon? Yeah that man. His name was Umar Bin Khataab. We’ve all read about his stories [...]

Its seems for generations mankind has been involved in a heated debate in regards to the topic of love. Does love exist or better yet, can you tell me about love at first sight? Let me take it one step further and ask you about our period of existence. Do you believe that our generation [...]
