Ass Not Arse Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Ass not Arse

In book of many nights
-failed Wazir, so talked of
-the Ass and Bull, advice…
- (the latter tired of…)

Ass taught bull
-bull was wise
-Ass received the prize
-on its back cargoes, loads

And this is story
-with us in Middle East

Let's not doubt that bastard
-bombards and, is liar
-is a thief, a looter
-was born a murderer
-anxious is for blood vampire
-her stars in blue, with blood inspired

Before her, her mother
-the Great Empire
-was endless
-and that whore was the same
-as have been Paris and Kremlin
-and Lisbon and Madrid
-Hollanders, Swedish

All of West; one by one
-and before, Ottoman
-and Chingiz and Tatars
-and Greek, Persia
-and Japan and China

Somebody at each time…

Let's be fair and honest
-let us not complain
-let's stop whine; confess
-could they put load on us
-if were wise…not an 'Ass'?
