Jesus: turn your other cheek
Mohammed: fight a holy war
Paradoxical so it seems
Who is wrong and who is right?
A question that has bothered me
For so long until one day
I saw the movie, Gandi
It solved it straight away
I saw Ghandi fighting
The strongest of holy wars
While turning his cheek
A fight on the highest possible plane
I read the speech “I have a dream”
Another warrior for justice
Non-violence was his creed
Another holy war while turning cheek
The contradiction is only fake,
We have to fight injustice
With all the might we can
But on the highest plane.
Fighting a holy war
While turning cheek
Winning is the only outcome
Indeed a blissful paradox
