You say you are a man of principles,
But, I would like to ask you, what is your principles, guided by whom in whose direction?!
You are baffled with my question!
Then, you say I follow ethics, I hold integrity,
I am virtuous!
Oh, really, isn’t it the principle of God?!
Allah, showed us the ways that you already are following!
The man smirked with disbelief and turned away!
Whispering- oh, a burgaining bigot!
I too shouted loud, a desperate despot!
One thought, he was a fool living in the modern world reverting back to old ways- how regressive!
Another thought, he is moving away thinking how progressive he is, but he has lost his way and doesn’t know whom he belong, where to go further,
He is moving on and on in a circular motion without knowing the centre he is revolving around!
The fakir standing right behind them smiled upon and thought!
