On the marble edifice of the mausoleum
dedicated as a shrine to his remains he will
have inscribed "The mosques are our barracks
the minarets our bayonets, the domes our helmets
and the faithful our soldiers" proudly waving
the banner of Islam's inevitable conquest so
that generation upon generation to come
shall know he, like the Prophet Mohammad
was a standard-bearer owed a like veneration
as he defends his nation from the unspeakable
slander of Armenian genocide, imprisons jurists
and military servicemen, journalists and human
rights activists for the unforgivable sin of slighting
Islam, above all, criticizing his modern-day reign
as supreme caliph. For through this great man
speaks the word of The Lord of the Worlds, while
he anointed to power is The Lord of This Earth.
