Generous Blessings



When the sun changes its course, rises from the west,

And America realizes she’s no longer considered best,

Then reflect on what’s left, unless, this is all a test,

When China places the world inside of a birds’ nest.

When the hurricanes and tornadoes come in succession,

And they cover up the economic reality of this recession,

Then will greedy politicians be shown Hell’s correction,

When earthquakes, floods, and dead life fills depression.

When truth is revealed from the lie in their words,

And the death swarms bring about life in the third,

Then the Christ comes carrying the two-edge sword,

When he confirms his brother Muhammad, and more…

When words rip from this page and you think to dream,

And not only you, but the whole, and all of humanity.

When prayer seems vain, the worship, and all charity-

Then know that Islam’s pilgrim sends Ramadan Karim.

Active Revolutionist from Chicago, by way of New Jersey, Atlanta, Birmingham, and now NOLA; dedicating his life to establish a truly independent economic system for the poor and oppressed peoples of America first. Fighting for those faces you see and don't see on the websites: THE ARK PROJECT LLC THE BEEP INC. BEEP BLACK WALL STREET BOOKS I'm Muslim, I'm Black and I'm American so I guess I have three strikes against me LOL. I'm here reaching out to those concerned about the great divides that no-one wants to address and I'm here to address them head-on (Social Injustice, Islamophobia, Systematic Oppression, etc...). I am the author of this book: "Oh, Say Can You See!?" (Secrets) & Truth Is In The Art which shows how passionate I am about what was done and what continues to be done and ignored. Poetry is as a result of my life experiences as well as my opinions. They are my studies of the scriptures while paralleling them with history along with the present day's crimes against humanity, by those that claim to govern us. Keep in mind that my love for this country is beyond measure and incomparable. However, there are principles that a person ascertains to and therefore must stand upon. more…
