Imperialism Poem by Akhtar Jawad
Imperialism
One who conquered the lands from west to east,
and one who could only make slaves from north to south,
but could not win the hearts,
sewn bushes of hatred.
After hundreds of years the slow moving time,
changed the entire landscape,
the bushes got puberty,
no surprise if these clouds shower blood.
Centuries old thirst has modified the leaves in thorns,
flowers are a magic of green leaves of love,
thorns are an outcome of hatred.
You are getting what you gave to the soil.
Why do you expect rains from the clouds,
now take your bath in your own blood,
and don't expect flowers from the earth.
You are getting what you gave to the soil/// YEAH EXACTLY WRITTEN; AS YOU SOW SO YOU REAP/// EXCELLENT ALLEGORICAL WRITING ON IMPERIALISM
You are getting what you gave to the soil.. a thought provoking poem
The start of war has been attributed to imperialism. Yes, greediness of people had showered the world with hatred and darkness. A very incisive, powerful and beautifully crafted write. A great poem. It should be Poem Of The Day. On to my Poem List.
The root of imperialism is greediness. People and countries who practice it want to rule the world in disregard with humanity. Yes, those who had a taste of it will suffer the brutal consequence of their despicable acts.
