Paradise: The Tankas

What a world we own.
Jihadis blow themselves up!
For holy Koran—
Or seventy-two virgins?
And what will they do with them?
                (11/27/10)

If you kill yourself—
Declaring your Muslim faith—
But ate pork sausage,
Does that debit your virgins
In the Garden of Allah?
                (11/27/10)

Apathetic souls
Professing rich faithfulness
Do not qualify
For fierce, hot carnal pleasure
Unless they kill multitudes.
                (11/27/10)

If you had on Earth
Just one writhing non-virgin,
Would that satisfy,
Preserve lives, save innocents,
Relieve those airy virgins?
                (11/27/10)

Marriage, Christ taught us,
Does not exist in heaven.
But Muslims object,
Surrender their earthly lives—
Lusting for angelic wives!
                (11/29/10)
