For those who dont know Sri Lanka is known as the teardrop of Allah for its shape looks like a tear.

Surely Allah's tears do not need cleansing? Unless you think they become sullied when a load of Sri Lankan's live on top of them. By God you're probably right :(

Your Haiku series on current affairs continues to amaze!
Please do one on Charles and Camilla, my one is rubbish:

ears in a bridal
party, the synod ejects
equine betrothal.

There was an old duffer named Charles
Whose eyes were obscured by his jowls
He wandered off course
In pursuit of a horse
And proposed to Miss C. Parker Bow'ls :(
