The Kingdom Of The Dog (14) Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

Cave Dog

In Islamic law, dogs are unclean
But -so called- the Companions of the Cave
slept for hundreds of years by God's will
for fear of man's oppression in a Cave
Their Guard -Dog slept in the door
The men were promised Paradise
Will their Dog enter the Heaven with them?
He has slept 300 years like the men,
Not inside, but by the opening of the cave

His sacrifice is not rewarded
Offended for being an unclean DOG!
