Taliban Plan

Publishing this poem would not have been tolerated in pre-millenial Afganistan.

 


 


Tools were needed, plan to enhance,


Leaving nothing to whim or chance.


Voila! Omniscient God, full of grace, 


Too utterly powerful for any to face.


 


Documented plan in liturgical epic,


With dark-shrouded mystery eclectic.


Imbued with awesome hooded magic,


Rewards wondrous, damnations tragic.


 


Rules were set for sexual conduct


Most progeny proselytes to induct.


Government gains always planned,


Transmogrify, engulf, and expand!


 


Spokesman, intermediary, I will be, 


With moral authority over thee.


My design! My creation! My coup!


Now all must do what I want them to.

Leland,

I just wrote this poem as an answer to yours here; pls read:

Half the world is white
The other half is red
Half call themselves ‘might’
The rest worship God
How can the left be “right”
Or the right misled
In the East, the sun’s light
In the West, it’s dead.

Half the world is White
The other half is red
Half will forever fight
To steal the other’s bread
Cocksure they are bright
To live without a head
Adamant their night
Must be the day instead!

Did you get me?

Leland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All of this based on MISCONCEPTION!
Taliban is NOT an invention; it is a STANDARD
Islamic Government.. And No, it is not about what you are saying!
