Abstract

Grandson Robert Nazarene (bio) Why are there searchlights beneath the barn? Those are the babies, you say. What are they seeking? Un- bridled sin. Strew it everywhere. Follow the signposts to Jannatul Baqi. Bring the babies. Sledge their teeth into the rocks. Jannatul Baqi is a cemetery in Saudi Arabia where the gravesite of the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad is located.
