Enough!

No more compromise

Your kaaba has got you believing there are entities "out there" to distract you from the entities that have already infiltrated your mind and are feeding off your neurons; and your kaaba has become you

Exorcism begins with iconoclasm--but you have to really want the footstool back! You have to be prepared to lose the reputation that you have been falsely lead to believe is dignified and "normal". I got news for you: it's not

You were hosted to be a host for more than this! There is a glorious reality knocking on the door of your kaaba

You don't even have to unlatch the inner key, and you couldn't even do that if you tried. When your shattered black stone hears that "yes", she will be reversed in time to pristine mint condition, again become a glowing pearl

It's time to release all that's been held back by your unclean guests trying ever so hard to ensure your future is a wilderness

It's time for deliverance

BTW "kaaba" (a black box) here is symbolic of the Television (in turn representing mass media and popular narratives that are peddled very far from the truth)

Before reading your own comments, my home work tells me - The Kaaba, meaning cube in Arabic, is a square building elegantly draped in a silk and cotton veil, located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. - clearly you can't criticise it or don't dare?

Agree with what you've expressed, BTW. You're so productive, and look like your pupils all run away from your classroom except a few. Ha ha ha

The story of the kaaba is the story of a sacred site fallen into decay and polytheism that becomes redeemed when idols are removed. It also includes the added tale of a covenant stone (some say meteor) which was once white to signify the purity of the Ismaelites but became blackened from absorbing their sins like a chalace containing God's wrath. This black stone is 'Christomorphic' in its significance as an absorber of sin and a rock that accompanies the faithful as the cornerstone of the 'House of God' (which also signifies the human heart in Sufism). So there is nothing Islamophobic about this poem, if that was your concern my dear poet friend. 

SHALOM 🤎
