Allahu Akbar |
| Chalk in the riverbed |
| was deposited |
| by the ocean as it boiled off. |
| Encased in calcium carbonate, |
| we could drown or we could solder. |
| I climbed the ranks of militiamen |
| and the Sadrites |
| and my parents felt a cautious pride |
| and disregarded Shari’a Law |
| and put the Tigris in a trench now. |
| Give us rain. |
| Send us water. |
| Send us trucks. |
| Send us tanks. |
| Send us IEDs. |
| Send us planes. |
| Is the sky clear enough? |
| Send us dust storms. |
| Allahu Akbar. |
| The sand has lowered the vitamin |
| saturation point. |
| Put a straw under the and suck. |
| We made a pact with the Arakeen |
| and we built ourselves a filter. |
| The city hydro’s undrinkable. |
| Shattered cinderblocks |
| are their favorite things to talk about. |
| We saw your face in the Guardian |
| and it raised the circulation. |
| Send us rain. |
| Please transmit. |
| Please receive our dumb prayers, telepath. |
| Send a flood. |
| Send us an avalanche. |
| Send us cold. |
| Send us ice. |
| Send us meteorites. |
| Send us snow. |
| Send us hail. |
| Send us high speed rail. |
| We can pay. |
| We should pay. |
| We will pay. |
| We insist. |
| No defaults. |
| But we must get down to Chechnya. |
| We defend. |
| We fight back. |
| We plant bombs under tracks. |
| We skip church. |
| All the monotheists sing: |
| «Allahu Akbar!» |
| And the Inuit sang, |
| and the Zionists sang: |
| «Allahu Akbar!» |
| And the economists sang, |
| and the astronomers sang, |
| and the anarchists sang: |
| «Allahu Akbar!» |
| And the atheists sang: |
| «Allahu Akbar!» |
| God is great. |
| Allahu Akbar. |
