From an atheist's perch, I watch the desert rage,
Books of old ignite the modern cage.
Torah's laws from Moses, Gospel's call to grace,
Quran's sword from Hira, Enoch's cosmic race.
People of the Books—Jews, Christians, Muslims bound,
One God's heirs turned foes on blood-soaked ground.
Ethiopian scrolls with Jubilees unwind.
Five-five-one warns "no allies from their fold,"
Medina's scars where ancient feuds took hold.
Tehran chants "Death!" as proxies light the night,
Houthis curse the sea, Gaza lost to sight.
Najran Christians bowed, Jewish tribes once near,
Now Hezbollah rains fire, drowning mercy's tear
People of the Books, verses twist to justify,
Honor righteous few, damn the rest—or why?
Human power cloaked in holy tribal cries,
Atheist sees gods born from our lies.
Red Sea drones, Beirut ablaze anew,
Books sharpen swords—what's sacred in you?
Eunuch reads Isaiah, Philip's waters flow,
Africa's faith from Acts takes early glow
Cush bows in Psalms, yet kin slay kin today,
Three-six-four pleads "One God"—cast away
No Bible term for "Book-folk," just nations blend,
Prophecies unite where divisions rend
Five-eight-two stings Jews with old-time hate,
Context buried 'neath Yemen's rally weight
Dhimmi shields of jizya, meals and brides allowed,
Now minorities flee as promises avow
Sixty-eight guards rites if justice holds the line,
But jihad screams louder, crossing every sign
People of the Books, once safe by ancient code,
Till swords demand more than mercy's load
Extremists pick lines for kings' dark gain,
Tribal minds collide in scripture's chain.
Geopolitics wears a prophet's face,
Humanity denied in endless chase.
Six centuries: Christ to Muhammad's cave,
Arab Christians, Jews—their oaths once gave.
Torah, Injil, Psalms—heaven-sent they claim,
Iran's net binds Hamas in holy flame.
2026 shadows: proxy wars relight,
Vengeance dressed divine through endless night
Ethiopia keeps Enoch, tales the West forgot,
Gaza grief twists protest into plot.
No compulsion preached, yet power rules the rift,
Books as weapons drift where mercy lifts.
Abrahamic roots shared from Eden's start,
Turned to curses tearing worlds apart
James four-one: wars from desires inside,
Matthew five: love foes, let peace abide
Isaiah two dreams swords to plowshares turned,
Yet Books forge blades as Middle East burns
Outsider asks: gods mirror human spite?
Grudges eternal through the bloody night
Houthi crimson waves, Lebanon aflame,
2026 plays prophets' timeless game.
Three-one-one-three lauds faithful prayers true,
Hypocrites twist bonds forever askew
Books beg mercy over wrath's cruel art,
Rage makes death routine, tearing heart from heart
Shared vein twisted to curses, endless pain
One Book traps your mind—half the puzzle's lost,
Step outside the lines, count the total cost
Same God in every verse, yet fists fly wild,
He'd punch Himself bloody, like a madman riled
Atheist wake-up: drop the holy math that's skewed,
See all the Books as one, or stay trapped in this feud
