My thoughts on Myanmar (formerly known as Burma)
Author’s note: The following poem is about the recent string of violent religious & ethnic-cleansing episodes, in Myanmar (formerly known as Burma), which have barely been reported, on any major news circuits, to the extent that it needs to be.

My thoughts on Yusef Ramelize & his amazing project: “Homeless For One Week”
Author’s note: It’s very ironic how in a place like New York City, by far, the wealthiest city on the planet, in Human history, can actually have a significant homeless population. What’s also just as sadly amazing is how so many of us do nothing about it. I mean, sure there’s various organizations & food-banks.… Continue reading

Oppression is wretched!!!
It is something that will taint your soul. You’ll never reach Paradise, our goal. Tyranny is something that which Allah has banned for Himself. Yet, we have the audacity to strip the creation of their wealth. This wealth is priceless: they are our lives, properties & honor. Violating, taking these things from others is an… Continue reading

My Cocoon-Diaries Part III
Author’s note: My Cocoon-Diaries are poems and/or general writings which contain self-reflections for me, how I’ve been living & how I should’ve not been living, over a significant portion of time that I’ve taken to limit my social-spheres & social-interactions. It’s been a time for me to dig deep within myself, to wrap myself up… Continue reading

My thoughts on al-`Asabiyyah/Xenophobia
Author’s note: al-`Asabiyyah, in the Arabic-Language, represents any/all Unwarranted-Bias, either for or against someone, generally based upon Things which a Person has little to no Control over (like Family-Ties, Ethnicity, National-Origin, Gender, etc.). There are also Other-Manifestations of al-`Asabiyyah as well (like Cultural-Normatives, Religion, Inter-Religious or Socio-Discrimination, etc.). This Poem that I’ve written will be… Continue reading

This is what you don’t call me:
Don’t call me an Islamist, that’s just a code-word for terrorist. Don’t call me Fundamentalist, this just means I’m not tolerant. Don’t call me a Sufi, this means I have my head in the clouds. Don’t label me Salafi, this just means I treat people like dogs. I don’t wanna be red-flagged as being anti-modernity… Continue reading
