Seventy-two unemployed, young virgins
Await you in paradise Ishmael
(The mullah promises)—and all your sins
Erased by feats your relatives retell—
Koranic acts! Just become a martyr!
Nigeria: you blew up four dozen
Christians leaving church (what could be tarter?).
Damascus: sixty Arabs (your cousins!)
Dismembered by explosive suicide!
Baghdad: don’t even ask—too horrible
To contemplate how Sunni-Shi’a pride
Explodes all peace, settles cultist quibbles.
Your reward? A hoax! Those female minors—
Promised paradise—don’t have vaginas!
