".......And you felt so tall and so high did you not? The same way you felt with the small boy or the 14 year old girl...
Ah! tight Iraq... Saving themselves for your invasion or so you think.
People of America, I have news for you.
This is hell let loose. There is no tight here. All is flowing.
Blood is flowing, lives are flowing...
Tight bodies are flowing.
All is flowing...in one huge flood, in one huge hurricane,
that will embrace you,
embrace your "tight" hearts and equally "tight" minds...
This is no Katrina, no Dean...This is the Iraqi hurricane...
The hurricane of the little boy on the boulevard, the hurricane of the 14 years old girl that was "Awww so tight"... the hurricane of the desperate, lost, " hajji"...
And this is the Arab woman you can't identify with.
She is here. Typing away...
And reminding you of the flood that will soon engulf you.
Yeah, am that "oriental thang." So pay heed."
