Goodbye Lord
Its been a hard road
You helped me build.
Im grateful.
You got me through
Some dark times.
I thought you a light,
A torch in the darkness,
But really
It was my magic.
My fire.
My light.
They told me you were watching
As though it was a comfort.
And I tried
To feel helped
Held
I tried so hard
To give you the love
I was told you created

God
God
If she is omnibenevolent, omniscient and omnipotent;
Then I want to meet her creator’s creator’s creator,
After all, lest we forget, the belief in creationism is infinite……
Curator of secrets. A fraud.
Plagiariser of Buddha. A dictator.
A hypocritical book to dissect,
A lot of information to correct.
Now let’s not try to kid ourselves and pretend to belie...

A poem for Ashraf Fayadh
Saudi courts, your rule of fear is finished
- the sentence on this poet negates your faith.
Your hollow incantation "God Is Great"
is plainly false if God can be diminished
by lines of verse. Should murder be admonished
to Ashraf Fayadh, forevermore his fate
will hold as evidence that you're afraid
of poetry. Frankly I'm astonished:
astonished that a land so steeped in culture,
in li...

Religious Dogma
From the dawn of man when he perceived
When he philosophised about conduct of the life to lead
Hallucination and myth began to unfold
The roots of religious dogma began to grow
Religious text stemmed from man made stories
Written by scholars to express their theories
Taking what you will from whatever you agree
But blind faith is foolish, it is so unreal

Bone
and spat it out
and for many years it crawled
before it learned to stand
where it said “I will make you now a fresh bowl,
from my family’s blood”

... and where is your God?
steals a life, unformed and pure,
a child,
so please don't tell me there is a God
for I would ask you and where is your God
when the innocent are tortured and slain
in his unholy and despicable name?
I would ask you again and again and again
where is your God,
that is neither holy nor loving
but empty, remorseless and vain.
There goes your God

There is no god
There is no god,
But One,
One Sea,
One Rock,
One Land,
One Tree
One Sun,
There is no god
But we
Are
One.
