Potato Life Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Potato life

I am the mountain child
Accustomed to rough life.

Maybe I stayed long
Inside and within walls
Like those on the couches
Turn into potatoes with TV…

Brainwashed they are and
Are fed with second hand
Puke of few who…

Watch, read
And become inter-ward…

One of such is news
Newfoundland's Jennifer!

She removed her husband
From life insurance
And vanished forever!

Did she leave to lose life?
Did she find new life?
What about new name?
With other man, address?

Mysteries compile
When remaining indoor
Hear my childhood years:
"This is just one of the
Many lives of outside
They are like the mountains
And valleys, fish-less creeks
And plains and the hills;
With many wolves and sheep."

Must go out not to fall
For life of single wife;
Runaway, targeted
By pen of journalist…
