In the tradition of Jamaica Kincaid’s ‘Girl’ and Allen Ginsberg’s ‘Howl’ I am musing.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Friends online for the Eidul Fitri greetings; friends from many faiths, many cultures, many differences wishing well of each other; meanwhile the politicians from those great divides and the filthy towers of power try to wish each other unwell-ness; in Malaysia they are fighting over the money stolen and who to blame with the IS-claimed bombing; in America as I sat at the mass prayer of the end of Ramadan, the speakers are warning against the man called ‘Trump’ who may become president and build wall for the Mexicans and force Muslims to wear batches, as in Hitler’s Germany, upon the Jews killed in the millions, in the ovens and in their community; this is today’s America, girls and boys, this is today’s Malaysia as families celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri whilst worried what the Malay-Muslim-radicalised jihadists will do next to claim Malaysia and Indonesia as an Islamic State of South-East Asia.
