Yakob (Jacob)

Inspired by the teachings of W.D.Fard the founder of the Nation of Islam

Yakob

Go back to Patmos

Undue what you have done

Pull out the spikes from the brains of the young

Allow them to live, to learn

Allow them to be free

 

Yakob

If you do not do what I command

Then I will throw you off the mountain

I will undue what you have done

 

Mediterranean am I

Living father

Living son

Musa

One

 

Strong

Ever ready

The ones like me

 

We are the in between of your scheme

Embodiment of perfection

 

 

Yakob

Why tremble so?

 

Yakob

You never were one for truth

I don't know much about the teaching of Islam however I thought this poem to be very well done. The structure of the poem makes me think of a crown tilted on its side (not sure if that was intentional). Yakob is a liar who has to fix what he has done yes?

[Abdul Batin Osman Bey]

Yes Yakob was a mad Scientist on the Island of Patmos who had to undue what he did, I should stress that the Nation of Islam does not teach Islam in the sense as Muhammad's Islam but they have some thought provoking insights.
