Call A Spade A Spade! Poem by Ali Rahimi

Call A Spade A Spade!



Who relishes marriage consummation?
When you see betrayal and frustration
Who imagines staunch patriotic affiliation?
Where there is blatant state corruption
Who needs moral codes and instruction?
Where there is nonsensical superstition
Who wants pedagogy and education?
Wrestling with unemployment and economic stagnation,
Who fancies religious indoctrination?
When there is rampant child molestation
Who accepts law and regulation?
When there is pandemic power legitimization
Who gains women equality and emancipation?
Where they confront violence and human rights violation
Who agrees to commitment and romanticization
With easy virtual communication and cyberspace flirtation
Who gets spiritual satisfaction?
With so much shallow mundane materialization
Who can learn scientific scholarly objectification
Engulfed in prejudice and ideological dissemination
Who can get freedom and democratization?
With filthy manipulation and politicization
Who can get tranquility and mental relaxation?
In mental disorders and aberration
Who can enjoy culinary taste and satisfaction?
In pandemic famine and starvation
Who can follow omnipresent globalization?
Immersed in idiocy and localization
Call a spade a spade!
