THE MOSQUE TO THE CRYPT
(To the victims of Christchurch killings)
An untold day of fierce tears
A broad day massacre.
A mad
man single-handedly
Devoured ferociously
Quashing humans like him
In a duo sacred place of worship (Al-Masjid)
Despondency of the day
Went into the dreams of the lots
A blueprint of bigotry
That has given an alcove for hate speech.
A pat on the back of the ‘Egg Boy’
For ruling out that appalling and ugly
utterances
Of a minister who seems to be a Racist.
In this manner of scrawling,
The poet is throbbing of the dark day
That dispatched the lives of Muslims.
Sorry to the wives that have become a widow
And to the minors that have become an orphan
Through this rueful event
We pray for the adrift souls
Oh! you the Deathless
Forgive their shortcomings,
Expunge away the tears of their antecedents
Grant them patience for them to accept the
occurrence
As a known-full act from you the Almighty
‘Cause not a leaf falleth but He knoweth it,
Not a grain amid the darkness of the earth,
Naught of wet or dry but in thy decree.
