 SACRIFICE  by Billy Hadi February 2015 
‪#‎Badun‬ was a little boy whose father,Darko, was a feared robber and her mother,before she had been married to his mother ,Marpuk,was a prostitute.
He used to think to himself " I'm just like water that comes from a dirty well".He heard that when her mother was a prostitute,his father used to buy her and sleep with her everytime after he and friends had done a robbery.This had been going on till they both,Darko and Marpuk, fell in love and one day her mother was
pregnant to his baby which was Badun now.
Time passed by and Badun grew up as a good and smart boy.Knowing this Darko said to himself " God,I know I'm a bad guy but I don't want my son to be like me".This urged that he earn money on the behalf of his son.Yes,he and friends did a robbery more intensely.It was worth their while to did a robbery as he got a lot of bucks.He used the money to support his family and also to support his son's school.And now Badun was a student of a good university.He was the best student and his father,Darko,was quite happy that he was.
There's always a black day in life and that was what happened as he was chased and shot by police on a high way after they had robbed a bank.He was dead but his friends were safe as they managed to get away
Badun was so shocked to hear this.He said to himself "Father,whoever you're ,you're my hero".This so much encouraged him to be a successful man in the future.
Oh,yes,life was good after bad things had been all by the way.Now Badun was a very successful business man and married to a beautiful lady with two sons..And it was like him to help the poor.He was such a kind hearted man.God said " I'm proud of you"
But sadness and happiness are what life is all about.This time was the day his old mother said forever goodbye.She'd been ill for months until God took her and kept her in His peaceful embrace.Once again Badun was feeling crippled inside for also his great heroine passed away.
As the story goes ,Badun and family lived in better livings.They were all happy.
And now Badun was an old and sick man.And his time came to him and he said goodbye to the world.
Now he was in heaven but couldn't help wondering why he didn't see his parents there.Soon he asked an angel there " Where are my father and mother?" The angel said " They are in hell".Badun soon screamed out loud" Oh, Noooooo !!!!,they must stay here with me".The angel then said " Go down to to hell and see them".So then Badun went there and he saw for himself that his parents were being tortured.He was crying and said to an angel there "Stop, take them out of hell,and I'm going down there instead of them".The angel said"No,you can't, they deserve it due to their sins.I can't do what you ask me to do unless you consult God"
Soon Badun flew away and meet God.He was welcomed by Him while he was sitting on His throne.He said " Welcome,son,what can I help you?" Badun said while he was kneeling before Him" God ,I don't have the heart to see my parents in hell and tortured.I know they're sinful for not to have been in your way,but would you please be so kind as to pull them out of hell ,and let me go down there instead of them and I'm willing to get tortured".Then God smiled and say" Do you mean it ?".And Badun said " I really do".And God said " Don't you know it is bloody hot there".Badun in turn said " No matter how hot it is,I am willing to go down there but let my parents stay in heaven.They are my very beloved ones".Finally God said" Hey,son,stand up ! I know you're such a good child that you are willing to sacrifice for your sinful parents.Hey,good son,I'm really touched.I will let you and your father and mother live in heaven longer than forever.forever. Badun was crying and saying" Oh,God ,thank you very much indeed.it is most kind of you"

Made possible because of Eve Celine Leduc 02/2015

It is all about Eve and the original sin.
A choice was given her in Eden
Two trees one for eternal life
The other for knowledge: Good and Evil.
Eve knew she was mortal
She chose wisely knowledge.
She was curious, challenged authority.

Disobeying and curiosity are not sins.
Where would we be if Miriam obeyed?
If Pharaoh’s daughter obeyed.  No Moses.
Harriet Tubman the Black Moses
She too disobeyed, she too saved lives
Because of the Underground Railroad.
She knew good and evil because of Eve.

Sojourner Truth preached about women.
A former slave an abolitionist.
She knew firsthand the evils of slavery.
She knew the good of freedom.
She ministered by preaching the Bible
Wrote “Ain’t I a woman”
Thank you Eve, you ate the fruit. 

Rosa Park disobeyed as she sat.
Jailed she was for her disobedience.
Sparked a movement to abolish Crowe.
Men listened to her and followed her.
As Abraham was told by the Lord.
Listen to your wife Sarah.
Sarah and Rosa disobeyed man not the Lord.

Eve was curious, she disobeyed
She had free will did not obey blindly
Be it man or snake … she wanted to know
Make up her mind, on her own.
She wanted knowledge and wisdom.
Learning by trial and error gives wisdom.
So she could pass it on to her children.

Islam BEHEADED

Islam BEHEADED  by Celine Leduc November 2014 

Collectively we are made to think so, why?
The media tells us so, as they focus on IS
The Islamic State is at war first with Islam
Then Christianity and Judaism. 
IS at war with God or Allah and His peace!

Out of al-Qaida they came enraged.
They use Allah’s name for justice
Believers they say: fight injustice
They use the name of Allah in vain
Because the IS leaders are vain.

The leaders have lost their heads
They are at war with the infidels
They consider to be animals
They go and slaughter humans
Get notoriety as they behead

The first victim is the kidnapped one
The one slaughtered, beheaded
His government refused to pay
The blood money demanded.
His head cut off --- his blood spilt!

The second victim is all of us
Our pain manifest in anger/outrage
We are enraged at such inhumanity
At such barbaric acts that defies God
IS defiles the name of God/Allah.

Muslims who live in peace suffer
They are sandwiched by prejudice
The actions of IS and the media focus
Let us not lose our head to anger
Let us unite and remain at PEACE.



WHY,BLAME THE JEWS?

This poem is dedicated to all those who lost their life because of prejudice or preconceived ideas.

WHY, BLAME THE JEWS? Celine Leduc

It is fashionable to: “Blame the Jews”
For the ills of the world
For that that goes wrong in this world.
To use them as scapegoats
The goat that replaced Isaac
It is unfashionable to be thankful.

Blame the Jews for giving us monotheism
For giving us the Bible or Torah or the Law
Christians should blame them for Jesus
He was a Jew, was he not?
The new sacrificial Lamb
His blood was to redeem us for the original sin.

So much blood was spilt in the name of…
So many died went to heaven or to hell
Yet, their life was hell on earth
Because they were Jewish they died.
Because everyone “Blamed the Jews”

I and the other How "I" I perceive myself and how the "Other" responds

Taking a run

Confusing issues is my sport.
Comment out of sort
Unable to justify
Like a coward I run…
Run fearing truth
Run from truth.
Run, run, run
In a circle of lies

One Man’s Terrorist is another Man’s Freedom Fighter  Celine Leduc November 18 2014

I scream loud and clear I am a feminist
I tell everyone I am a pacifist
I am totally politically correct
Even when facts are incorrect
I am neutral … I am perfect
Yet, I am biased --- imperfect
As I go by my father’s words:
One man’s terrorist is another man’s Freedom fighter.
A feminist is not a follower of father. 
A feminist questions and finds facts. 
A feminist and woman know terrorist or fighter fight
Not for rights but to be right.

I am a Shiksa!

I am a Shiksa!
I know what you think of me!
You do not say it but think it.
I know all about you.
I know what you value.
I know many like you
You are one of them….

You look at me with wandering eyes
Shifty eyes that reveals who you are.
Never thought you were a Shiksa
I thought you were my friend
Makes me wonder what you think of me!
Do you know, friends I value
Racist I abhor! Go for a run never come back!

REMEMBRANCE DAY!

Remembrance Day! By Celine Leduc November 11, 2014

He enlists in the Army to Navy
He is a pilot or a foot soldier.
He is there for his country
To defend and protect his land
From a modern day Cain! 

Cain attacks wants to expand
He is not his brother’s keeper
He is the keeper of a war ideology.
His leaders fabricate an enemy.
All they want is the booty.

Attacked able young men enlist
To defend his land: His country!
All the while knowing the end
The earth will drink the blood
Of the fallen or of the wounded.

The Earth does not discern
Does not choose a side
She does not have borders
She is one and whole
Children of the earth must be whole.

War divides, maims and destroys.
War hurts the body
War destroys the soul
War is hell for all!
Remember Earth was Eden!

Ms Know-it-all and Ms by Celine Leduc

Ms. Know it all

She claims to know everything
Her reference and mantra is:
“I am therefore I know”
The old philosophical adage is:
“I think therefore I am!”
Ms. Know-it-all does not think!
She is no lover of Sofia
The epiphany of wisdom!


MS

A Ms. is amiss
Because, she fights men
Only to become man like
Follows in his footsteps
To gain respect
As he vies the booty.  

A Miss is bliss
She is a woman
The woe of man
Or she woos man
Hence she is a hit.
