Raped Again Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Raped again

Yesterday, once again,
I was raped!
I was raped!
I was raped!

I was forced to consent!
I was forced to consent!
I was forced to consent!

Was taught and was trained:
- "manufacture,
-tell lies and duplicate
-half truth…"

This is rape!
This is rape!
This is rape!

Why should I?
Why should I?
Why should I?

Be looked-down, rejected
-when true and honest?

Though I hate using hate
-I hate laws, governments
-all of them, regardless…

Regardless which and when!
Regardless how and where!
Regardless who leads them!

Those who know of Afghans
-the lands of bloods, wars
-from the ancient times
-must have heard "Words on rock, "
-which means "Sang-Neveshteh"

That is law and order
-without heart; nor brain…
