The man from Allah
checks his weapons
sanctioned by state law
and fires at will
ma sharia amour.
The white parachutes of love
sink to earth now red
mushroom cloud rising
with the spirits of the dead
and an apartment for sale
is newly free, commanding
wonderful views of paradise
in perpetuity.
Thanks David, I am so pleased you found this acceptable, as you are adept in pointing out the uncomfortable areas of life, whilst I can only draw on my sensibilities in such matters.
Likewise, thanks for your kind comments Lynn.
Thank you Laura for your like on this.
David, I hope you are wrong too.
Well written, Ray, powerful stuff. Excellent indeed.

Bang to rights David. My life has always been overshadowed by self criticism starting with a very critical upbringing , in the musical sphere especially. I am sorry too that I may have undermined your wonderful praise and as a friend given a false impression . (Don't keep saying sorry, you bastard(me)).
Actually I do think it is a very good piece on re reading it. Did I write it? I must have done.
