Corrupted Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Corrupted



Corrupted

When that man departed
-ignored name "Good in birth"
- (in his tongue "Old Persian")
-and took an Arab-Name
-as "Salman"
-Arabs lived in desert
- (in total wilderness!)

The world was run by the
- "Romans" and "Persians".

No one thought that few
-barefooted with camels,
-few palms, dried dates
-and the desert insects
-would ever take the world.

But they did!
Yes, they did!

They became world power
-by help of the oppressed
-easily like breeze.

The same were with Cengiz
-and the fall of Maya
-and collapse of Incas…
-in many eras and dynasties!

Feels pain in leather-feet
-if camel while walking
-steps on marble or an apple
- (very hard, young and firm)
-but not if, soft, corrupt
-that breaks, flattens
-as if is part of Earth.

The world is corrupted
-and led by corruption
-in Moscow to White House,
-and Riyadh to Tehran
-and in heart of Japan;
-everywhere, to Seoul
-and Europe; Bucharest! ! !

A Genghis is needed
-or Moses, or Jesus
-or maybe Mohammad
-or Karl Marx, Stalin or Hitler…

We are choked by bastards
-with greed for name, wealth!

These lying crocodiles!
These snakes and foxes!
These crows, shit eaters!

Cover sun by fingers…

We need the magpies to
-arrive with good news
-or the owls, vampires
-to settle in houses
-collapsed into rubble
- (Nagasaki, Hiroshima!)

Apocalypse is needed;
-an ending is needed
-to corrupt, corruption
-to the world; head to tail!

Let's unite…

Let us shout
-sweetest slogan:
- "We've had it
-and enough is enough! "

Let us go peacefully.

Then will wrap ourselves with
-the bombs and gun-powder
-if corrupts don't listen
-and stick to same guns…
