[QDeathstar]

I always hate trying to critique tectak, his cryptic replies leave me feeling unsure of myself.

A call, a cry, a father’s name; a million heads turn round.
No John, or David, Pete or Mat will bring Mohammed down. I am not versed in religion too much, but I believe these are deciples of Christ that denied him and tuned him over to the Romans, so this is a about snitches and the lack thereof in Islam
Though saints infest the west the east protects its sneaking thief;i would suppose the sneaking thief is the multitude of terrorist organizations rampant within the Muslim culture. Im thinking your saying that the western religious leaders are looked up to for doing good things while eastern religious leaders are much more destructive, from your point of view
steals thinking sons from thoughtful life, recrutment and radicalization
named in good faith to limit strife...
all synonyms for grief. these last two lines are more mysterious to me, assuming Ive read the previous parts of the poem right, though if I had to guess I'd say the last line is anti religion in general...
A century, millennium; time all but bombed by history. a reference to the history of conflict in the middle east
The curse of being son of man eats hearts and souls; a mystery
made secret by your place of birth, unsure of what life means,
the young treat death as blessed demise
to trade for early paradise;
and everlasting dreams.
Love when you can for gods are strange, and do not love you back.
Why else do mortals fight their fights, in holy lands, in black Iraq,
in sunlit places, made for peace? They kill us with commands
to maim, to glorify a Lord.
Oh how we play on things absurd
right into hell’s hands.
while the first stanza seems to correlate a lot with the current events in the Middle East and the radicalization of terrorists, the second half of the poem seems to take a step back, offering a more general distaste of religion in general...
Tectak being politically incorrect. Should I be bothered?
