	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	But these flames are NOT new
	To OUR dead
	OUR dead did cry their final prayer in those flames
	Our dead did sing their last lullaby in those flames
	Our dead prayed to our infidelite GOd in those falmes
	Our dead whispered a last goodbye to their mother
	IN THOSE FLAMES
	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	OUR dead clawed their children close in
	THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	OUR dead watched their daughters
	16 times
	RAPED AND BEATEN
	in the still-burning of THOSE FLAMES
	OUR dead watched an ax remove their
	mother’s skull
	and crown a wooden spit
	in the continuous burning of THOSE FLAMES
	OUR DEAD watched while Chrysotomos
	eyes and tongue were pulled out,
	teeth and fingers broken, one by one,
	in the laughing and the cheering
	OF THOSE FLAMES
	OUR DEAD watched their sisters drenched with gasoline
	and scream with melting skin
	“THE WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES”
	OUR DEAD gave birth to Turkish victories
	the gurgling and then dying trophy.
	on a bayonet which marked the borders of
	THE WORLD WHICH IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	OUR DEAD WERE DRAGGED IN MARCHES
	THROUGH THE DESERT SUN
	FOR WEEKS UNTIL THE SUN BURNED OUT THEIR LUNGS
	and when the desert sun which was burning them like flames
	ripped apart their lips, we heard the final prayer
	LORD GOD HAVE MERCY LORD UPON OUR SOULS!
	They saw the WORLD IS GOING UP IN FLAMES
	buried, not yet dead inside the pits
	engraved:
	“GIAOURI, INFIDELI:
	OUR GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO DIE”
	And now the unblessed dead have ordered us to say:
	THIS is my GRAVE, MY HOLY BED
	YOU CANNOT take it
	YOU can NOT ERASE MY NAME
	YOU can NOT ERASE OUR DEAD
	YOU CANNOT ERASE THE DEAD
	Because we have been ordered now
	to list their names, their numbers,
	to give their date of birth, their earthly city,
	their father’s name, the sweetness
	of their mother’s eyes
	GOODBYE
	GOODBYE
	GOODBYE
	and forevermore
	We’ll see you when the desert meets the sky
	But do not FORGET MY NAME
	And so these were the orders from the dead
	said without a word but with a final glance:
	the
	SECOND
	granted to the Infidel
	since an Infidelite Hell
	should NOT require a prayer
	should NOT require a silent moment
	And now the Infidel is told
	to forgive and to forget
	to understand :
	Advance into a paradise of Dead Memories,
	of Living Death, the Old Folks Home
	of Catatonia
	of Madness
	and Despair.
	“Do not ask me for the NUMBER of that Grave:
	It has been stolen.”
	“What IS this love for bones and dirt?
	Put this ancient thing behind you, Infidelite
	You HAVE no claim to GOD
	You Have no claim to PEACE
	YOu HAVE no claim to JOY
	YOU HAVE NO CLAIM
	YOU HAVE NO CLAIM
	YOU HAVE NO CLAIM
	GIAVOURI!!!!
	Remember just how lucky, sperm of Satan,
	that you are:
	to even BE
	alive.
	NOW!
	HERE!
	ACROSS THE SEA!
	GIAVOUR!
	You HAVE no God.
	A man without a God
	Can NOT be burned ALIVE
	He never WAS alive,
	not as a MAN, giavour,
	but as a DOG.”
	[PAUSE]
	BUT I HAVE orders from the Dead
	that warn me:
	“DO NOT FORGET ME:
	My blood will fill the air you breathe
	FOREVER.”
	“MY DEATHBIRD is Not DEAD
	HE CARRIES ALL MY TEETH:
	MY SMILE OF UNFORGETFULNESS,
	MY LAUGH!
	VRYKOLAKA!
	I am the man unburied
	who CANNOT sleep
	IN FORTY PIECES!!!!!
	I am the girl,
	dismembered
	and unblessed,
	I am the open mouth
	that drags your flesh
	and will never rest
	until
	MY DEATH IS WRITTEN
	IN A ROCK THAT CAN
	NOT BE
	BROKEN!”
	And these are the orders
	from The Dead.
