As time passes, we wonder more and more what truly makes someone a citizen of a country. Some people live in a country whom they despise to their bones, whereas others are willing to die even for an ant in one they don’t belong to. I wish I could lie to myself, but I truly do have a split mind, for my loyalty lies to two countries, not one. What trouble I have faced in one, it is by serving the interests of the other. England and Arabia. We can’t say more, other than that our internal struggles will determine the will of the countries. I want to bleed diamonds, and sweat gold for you. The world has not experienced a mite of your true potential. You grasped, to civilize. Shrinking now only means you will civilize further in the future. You are the servant that exists in the shimmering of a man’s mind, for your body can only be protected by swords made of compassion, and determination. I know I wasn’t born then, but I take full responsibility for any setbacks you might have had an the past, and it is my duty now to make it up to you, through service. In terms of millenia, we are a mere butterfly, but we will make your garden beautiful.
Hearken! Oh mighty Windsors! Your rule has no bounds, which is why I, a humble Arab, can cast my allegiance to you, living in a oasis of blue skies and needy cats. Your scepter might be small, but it will clink the mellowest of sounds when parrying and thrusting against the papal ferula, a debate recorded for the benefit of both sides. Yes, I am a Muslim, but my prayer stone reminds me everlastingly that I worship the earth. Your angels are the wills of steel that create an invisible mesh of regularity to a chaotic world, and though Zeus conquered the titans, Hades still spreads his mist in the hinterlands of what should be thriving and bustling megalopolises. Envy you the moon? Just name a place there, and it will be populated. Strike me with lightning, for I will eke out every little morsel of effort from your people, galvanizing them into building wonders looked back upon after millennia the way Stonehenge is looked at now, which though small now, was the peak of civilization then....
