The Jinn

The Iraqi people
Have known the Jinn
For centuries past

They have lived with
Generations of Jinn
Since before Babylon

And...

They know
The power of the ones
They call Shaitan

The American invasion
Released multitudes of Jinn
And the Shayateen were in their lead

These Jinn spread
Through the air and water
And sands of Iraq

They infiltrated
The very hearts and minds
And souls of the people

They wreaked havoc
Among the land and people
Of all of Iraq

Then...

The Shayateen found their way
Into the quarters and compounds
Of the American occupiers

The Arwaah began to slip into the folds
Of the skin, blood, and bones
Of the young American soldiers

And now...

The Shayateen and Arwaah
Are returning with our soldiers
To spread through our country

They are being released
Into the air we breath
And the water we drink

They are making their way
Into our very hearts and minds
And souls
