“Lock-n-Key (The Sonnet)

I am the lock,
You are the key.
Sight of your smile,
showers me with glee.

I got no need for church-n-mosque,
Got no need for God or Jehovah.
These are for those seeking security,
Upon love's face unfolds my Mecca.

Yesterday I was a sensible infant,
I studied scripture seeking holiness.
Today I am a grownass nutter,
Only godly gift is love's holy mess.

Bibles are expendable,
Altars are expendable.
Till love takes preference,
God itself is expendable.”

“Two Naskars (Sonnet 1541)

There's not one but two Naskars,
one humanitarian, the other sufi -
both rooted in a hatebusting blend
of reason and warmth, humanizing humanity.

The humanitarian sets fire to the blood,
the sufi makes ointment out of wounds.
Though the sufi came after the humanitarian,
it has only magnified the reformer's boon.

Along the journey of a humanitarian,
the sufi emerges from his soulful sea.
Cutting ties with all cave-age customs,
oneness is actualized in mindful diversity.”

“The Islam I Live
(Sufi Sonnet 1640)

The Islam I live speaks of love,
The Islam I live is gentle as dove.
The Islam I live claims no convert,
The Islam I live warms all in hug.

The Islam I live transcends doctrine,
The Islam I live transcends the mosque.
The Islam I live holds no faith foreign,
The Islam I live finds good in every walk.

The Islam I live is a walking azaan,
living call to tolerance and acceptance.
Muslim poet am I, from the valley of love,
The Islam I live is the end of violence.

The Islam I live is an act of peace,
a promise of love, in a world of malice.”
