Brainwashed Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Brainwashed

Qassim is a colleague
-want to befriend him
-but is hard…

Is Pashto and Afghan

Brainwashed
Brainwashed
Brainwashed

Not correct what he says
-of people and his faith
-and his land; the borders

His eye is like a hole
-and conic is its light
-straight; lasered line,

Strong, pointed, precise
-misleading; all is wrong

Halogen
Holograph

That land is my land too
-her people, Pashto too
-I want them united
-peaceful life of wisdom

But fear extreme
-his can be reflective
-causing same from the
-Uzbek and the Tajik
-and others…scattered! ! !

That makes them divided
-divided, divided, divided
-division causes pain

With it comes Taliban
-and bombers, suicide
