AN ODE TO MINARETS

Come, for the devil,
what's wrong with them? they're rather pretty

Come, for the devil,
haven't they an equal right
to their own fantastic myths?

Come, for the devil,
how are they to be summoned to prayer:
by cell-phone?

Come, for the devil,
this is your great diplomacy
and your democracy
