Poem of the Day for 04/05/26 Here A Mosque, There A Mosque... by Terry Olynik If those opposing The building of the Proposed NYC mosque, Be they the frightened, The Islamaphobic, Or the constitutionally challenged, Would think things through, I think they would be best-served By totally reversing their positions. Send forth a clarion call For more mosques Dozens if possible, All abutting the 9/11 site. The very second The Freedom Tower is finished, It will be the immediate target Of every anti-American Terrorist group on the planet. Muslim extremists could not Be among them however If the target were ringed by mosques, As the killing of a fellow Muslim Consigns one instantly to hell. Here a mosque, There a mosque, Everywhere a mosque mosque. 08/23/2010 Visit Terry Olynik's Library Here A Mosque, There A Mosque... Copyright © 2026
