A thoroughly down to earth woman, and a great insight into her life, and how she churns out so many books!
Didn't know where to post this so I thought this is as better place as any.
My good friend Noel watched a video clip from the internet recently of a girl being tortured by her parents in the name of Islam. It disturbed him greatly. The result is this poem, not about spreading hate but a wake up call to those who are espousing Shirah law in this country.
Thank you Noel Causer.
The ugly Face of Islam.
A voice cries out in terror
it's that of a teenage girl.
Not yet old enough to understand
why her tortured mind is in a whirl.
Pleas for forgiveness go unanswered
and her cries are all in vain.
Her pleading calls to “Allah”
disperse like water down a drain.
Shame upon her family name
for her actions has no bounds.
Her brothers help to dig the hole
just like a pact of hungry hounds.
Stripped of clothes she's buried
just her head is left for show.
It’s another honour killing
that the west has come to know.
Let those who have on sin, Christ said,
“cast forth the first stone”.
Our Christian bible has no meaning
when the child that sins, your own.
You've bought shame upon the family name
and for this the Islamic laws apply.
Death by stoning, the retribution
In the name of “Allah” you must die.
In the crowd with stones in hand
are the men that raped this child.
There to cast the stones of hate
upon this girl that they defiled.
“Allah is Great”, “Allah is Great”
is the chant that haunts this place.
Family honour is the winner
for this terrible disgrace.
These are the race of people
that we now welcome to our shore.
For speaking out our mind today
we're branded racist or infidels for sure.
Is this God that they call “Great”
the same one us Christians love.
Or a God that sponsors “Holy Wars”
with no sign of any peaceful dove.
