He should be home by now.
It is getting dark,
the roads are wet,
he is over due,
not a word.
Why hasn’t he called?
The rain falls menacingly,
tap, tap, tap.
Every noise,
makes you jump
makes your hand shake
makes your heart skip.
You are being silly
you know that.
The doorbell rings.
Turn and walk away
don't look back or you'll blow it
you know that.
Let the promise
of happiness
take you by the hand.
Islam, man?
The moderates denounce the violence,
the militants say they are doing Mohammad's work.
On this they disagree.
But they both know Allah is supreme,
so how could the hate
not be his work.
It is so true,
it is not the things I do that I regret,
it is the things that I don’t do
that cause me pain.
Be brave.
You have a lot to lose.
