Ramadan Blues

A holy month of fasting and prayer
Sharing the joys of life
Meant to remove any cares
From those suffering strife.

Eid al-Fitr brings a feast
To be shared by poor and rich
Cause Allah cares for the least
Hoping all find a joyous niche.

''Eid Mubarak'' is happily heard
Among the streets of Iraq
As terrorists fulfill the absurd
An celebrate with an attack.

"I bring to you Allah's joy
With a feast of goodies today.
Something for girls and boys
Oh look, I'll blow you all away!"

Carnage found in mangled bodies
Innocents dying on the streets
Should make them feel a bit naughty
Cause Allah's joys are truly sweet.

Maybe Muslims have forgotten
Why Ramadan was instituted
Hey! Stop treating people so rotten
And making the holy month polluted.
