Ali Farah Poems

To value the life of others
Is to acknowledge the sanctity of your life.

To feel for the ruin of others
...

If you ever wanna measure 
How well a man is educated
The proof is beyond any certificate
It is his awareness of knowing not much
...

We are alarmingly conditioned
Our perceptions are programmed
Our values are manufactured
Our thinking capacities are limited
...

If he is too proud to ask 
He is not a wise person

If he is too shy to express
...

I am a toddler man 
Who loves his grown up toys
I tweet my feelings to friends
I text my needs to whomever
...

If you want peace on earth 
Let it begin with you
And be sure you work for justice 
For it's what establishes lasting peace
...

He who is boastful with unyielding  pride 
Will let go many valuable camaraderies
For the two can not coexist in one cerebrum
As respeto links all friendship connections
...

When a friend betrays
or an acquaintance assaults
or a stranger attacks
or a protector turns to predator 
...

I always wonder
If my friends also wonder

Again I wonder
...

When I do 
what I do,
they don't like it 
because of how I do it
...
