Commented on the poem "Sinner's Prayer" on 01/06/09 at 10:33 AM
"I've uttered Astef Allah so many times"....you've said wha? did you me astghfir Allah??? "Knowing this I fall to my knees again
attempt to repent for every single sin
even though I know I can't even remember all them
in His presence I can't pretend
He knows what my heart intends
I'm trying to save my soul"..... yea I know exactly what you mean Cat, exactly. "Humbled only in His presence
no fear in my heart just submission
begging for redemption and salvation
a soul on it's way to Paradise -
speaking in transition
from the kneeling position
Insha-Allah
He's listening...".......Insha'Allah ya Rabb!!! this was a very personal write, thank you for sharing it Cat. Real talk...so many of us are trying to do the same.
I see where you are coming from Complex, *smiles warmly* and I'm glad to see a fellow poet speaking up about this issue. It's said that more people are doing the same. I agree with you that ultimately it is the fault of the entities. entities which misled the people and abuse of their roles as leaders. I also agree that this is more about saving humanity more than anything else. I've been saying that for a while now. "i'm for putting an end to the bloodshed.
i'm for humanity." .....agreed. Thank you for not being silent about this!!!

*cheesin*!!!! first off I have to say that's one powerful background. how did you find that pic?!?! and the way you opened this up..."**I love my country first and formost, but I cannot, and will not EVA support our governments BLIND support of Israel while they Rape & Kill innocent Palestinians at will**" ....THANK YOU!!!!! On behalf of Palestinians wolrdwide let me say thank you for acknowledging that! I may not be Palestinian by blood but anyone who knows me and knows me well knows that it is in my heart and deep in my soul so this write means the world to me right now. "This nation has a lot of dough,
but will you ever see it go …Or to those around the world
Who truly need and deserve our help
In the fight against tyranny, and oppression?!?!
(((Hell FUCK NO)))
We'd rather shut’em out
without a shadow of a doubt.
Demagoguery now attacks,
a threat more fatal than anthrax.
It turns the masses into sheep
So that dissenters get put to sleep." ...forgive me for quoting so much but I just had to because so much truth was being spoken here!!! U.S. is quick to aid the distribution of weapons and training of soldiers overseas but when it comes to helping ppl who have nothing and are being oppressed they turn their faces. It's funny to me how Bush wants to declare this war on terror but then suddenly, when it refers to Israel it's not terror...it's self-defense. BULLSHIT!! let's call it what it is...they are no better than Saddam, Osama, Castro, the Nazis, etc. They claim to want to end the war on terror but they are fueling it by allowing it to continue in Palestine, by continuing to aid the Israel army. "Of course terrorism is bad, yet it fucks
Me up when national leaders
Overthrow nations and don't expect retaliation."......ahhh! thank you! word up!! I'm so sick of people saying that Israel had the right to attack Gaza....first of all because they claim Hamas broke the ceasefire but let's rewind for a moment shall we. How can you even claim a cease fire when you have been controlling Gaza's electricity and food and transportation unyielding. cutting off electricity (not just now...even a few months back), placing food blockades, and setting up over 500 checkpoints in the Gaza Strip alone?!?!?! You expect Hamas who was elected by the Palestinians to speak for them...you expect them not to fight back against that oppression? you expect them to sit silently while they and their people continue to suffer because of greed?!?!? And even if you think that is a ceasefire!!....Hamas still was not the one to break it cuz lest they forget that while they were calling a truce the Israelis were still killing Palestinians...6 to be exact so if anyone is to blame is Israel...the oppressor. you can blame the oppressed for responding to their oppressor...it's human nature, that should be expected!!! and finally let me quote..."No fuckin way will you see me
blindly saluting a government
Who prides itself on murderess greed
So don't wave your distorted version
Of “Old Glory” in my face because
It will be set ablaze!!!" ......amen! Neither will you find me following any government blinding. I don't care what they say I will not stand for any government that will allow such inhumane crimes to continue on. Bush wants to say we must stand by our allies the Israelis....really?!?? even while they are committing a genocide in GAZA?!?!? somone needs to end this war on terror alright and they need to start with Israel and the U.S. this is ridiculous!!!! where is the humanity??!?!!? where?!?!?! ......On another note...this was an amazing write and I want to thank you for posting it. This is going in my favs collection and I hope you don't mind but I will be sharing this with my friends. I'm glad to see that you refuse to be silent about the things that matter. It's always refreshing to see another AMerican exercise his freedom of speech in a way that stands for the true values of this country instead of the brainwashed bullshit that the government and media express.
Amen!!! i see we share the same views about this "holiday". "what the fuck is a cupid
in comparison to the work of God?"....word up, that's what i'm saying! "so what is this day for again?
To buy him something
or he me for being the other's
very best friend?
Isn't that embedded in my smile
and the respect I give my king?" ....agreed. when you love someone, you should always show it. I think it's aefully said that ppl have become so self-involved that they need a damn holiday to remind them to love ppl. i mean really that's what it's saying. do you need to be reminded to show love and appreciation to those you care about? if you do that's pretty sad and unfortunate...perhaps you need more than a holiday to think about your priorities. ugh.. i'm getting all heated up now. lol
and I don' t need any man to validate that for me.
Your protest pictures are great, your call for others to express their viewpoints on this matter as been answered by me and I trust others will do so soon.
Be blessed and keep moving your mental ink forward! Respect... Peace
