Up from Earth's Centre through the Seventh Gate,
I rose, and on the Throne of Saturn sate,
And many Knots unravel'd by the Road,
But not the Master-Knot of Human Fate.






The blasphemy of somebody like me is not easy and exorbitant,
There isn't any stronger faith than my faith,
If there is just one person like me in the world and that one is impious,
So there are no Muslims in the whole world.


What is you'r opinion about them?

I like this one a lot. Excellent, authoritative rhythm and grand, larger than life scope. Answers the question: "What if Dylan Thomas had collaborated with Poe on a subject like Omar Khayyam".
