ON FUNDAMENTALISM
David Lawrence
These familiarities are distant wounds in others’ ambitions.
We fall into direct thrombosis when our lungs
Don’t equal our affirmations.
How do you distinguish Mohamed from Marquise de Sade?
Mohamed didn’t have the courage
To push his cruelty forward without
Religion?
All de Sade needed was the whip
And chains.
Mohamaed shames Allah,
Allah can no longer look at his cruel
Worshippers.
He dresses them in robes
Inappropriate to the sands.
It is easier for a camel to pass through a Muslem’s fundamentalism
Than for Mohamed to get into the heaven of consort
With a Jew or a Christian.
