MOHAMMAD SKATI Poems

Bad sanctions are imposed on
The Syrian people just
To make them kneeling down
To a blind world that sees
...

We only own a coffin and
A tomb in a certain graveyard that
Are always ready for us
Without any hesitation,
...

Undoubtedly peace is pretty, but
Not with any on-going war,
Wars destroy humanity
Simply because they are
...

Our current world is clearly
Without any pretty dreams
To many and many reasons,
Nightmares are our current world's outcome
...

No one understands
Our sufferings and
Our sufferings, but
We do,
...

لا احد يفهم
آلامنا و
عذابنا الا
نحن
...

I don't need
A knife to cut a melon or
A watermelon into pieces or
Into slices,
...

There is no need
To distance oneself
From our world's problems at all,
There is no need
...

We all complain from
A lot of things around us
For many and many reasons,
We are human beings whose patience
...

Fasting never hurts
Unless we are sick or
We are in a longer trip
To a certain place
...
