Kobane has Not Fallen …
Kobane stands,
the resistance firm,
the resolve resolute.
Kobane stands,
repulsing the marauding ISIS horde,
No Pasaran!
They Shall Not Pass!
Kobane has Not Fallen …
Kobane stands,
the resistance firm,
the resolve resolute.
Kobane stands,
repulsing the marauding ISIS horde,
No Pasaran!
They Shall Not Pass!
The Infidel …
The infidel writes,
blasphemes,
rejecting cellophane sermons.
The infidel whispers,
cursing,
the benevolence of the higher power.
The infidel chokes,
gagging,
on the odour that emanates,
from self-righteous mouths.
The infidel waits,
patiently,
for the retribution that must arrive.
The infidel casts off,
the labels of faith,
of belonging,
of sanctimonious snobbery.
The infidel refuses,
To beseech the merciful god,
And to cower,
And to kneel.
The infidel stands,
At times alone …
“Let him who is without sin cast the first stone” – Jesus Christ
Kobane Stands …
( October 13th 2014 )
the marauders push on,
the fascist flag of hate,
limp,
flaccid,
yet conceited,
puffed – up,
its arrogance straining against the free wind,
and yet,
and still,
Kobane stands!
“I’d rather die on my feet, than live on my knees” –
Emiliano Zapata

The Siege of Kobane …
(Saturday 11th October 2014)
The resistance stands,
Kobane stands,
it’s defenders armed with Kalashnikovs and the fierce will of a people refusing to be cowed,
the resistance against the perversions of ISIS stands,
today,
in the streets of Kobane.
The battles rage on,
as we type these words,
as you read these lines,
the resistance against ISIL barbarity holds firm.
Kobane stands!
Still!
Kobane has not fallen!
Viva the Resistance!
