Never In This Place Poem by Naveed Akram

Never in this place called Earth
Has a home been built,
Bodies of strong youth
Are in the nights of density.
Never do lights reign supreme,
Inside other lights that cause damage.

The Earth erases a note
From the file called Throne,
Adding the senses of throats
And tongues and tonsils,
Terrible training abides in the teeth.

Never in this place do we erase the speech,
Listening is called spoken ability,
Like the homes flattened,
Little by little, liking the orders of youth.

Lights smack the eyes with the thunder,
Lightning strikes are burdens for sisters
Of the night, light happens to entrance
Our children and sentence them to death.
