Death Is Meaningless For Pakistani Soldiers Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Death Is Meaningless For Pakistani Soldiers

Rating: 5.0


You blamed Iraq of having chemical weapons
you attacked and destroyed Iraq
the land where glimpses of the ancient civilization
still appear as remains of the flowers
that sprung in in the early springs of the humans.
Then you confessed
that there were no chemical weapons in Iraq.
But you infected Iraq with the germs and viruses
of a civil war.
You raged the Afghan war
hiding in the cover of religious extremists
you helped and encouraged the terrorists
to defeat and disintegrate the Soviet Union.
You won the last cold war.
You stated there will be no cold wars in future.
Remember while signing the charter of UNO on a ship
You told the world that there would be no wars in the future.
But can you appreciate peace in the world?
Your economy depends on wars.
Mr.Pscho!
Be prepared for another confession
with a mask on your face
through the window of a church,
you would be confessing that Pakistani Army
made sacrifices in the war on terror
that were singular and unparalleled.
But keep in your mind Pakis are different persons
for them death is meaningless.
Take some relaxing drugs
think and think again and again,
what this sentimental nationalists can do
before they embrace death with a confident smile.

(cont.) ..what this sentimental nationalists can do....maybe these, not this. of course the intent of your poem is much more important than spelling. does the U.S. have eyes for Pakistan now? i don't keep up with 'news' and i don't think it is (know it is) not always credible/believable. have you sent copies of this poem to el presidente, the Congress, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Pentagon i think) yet? ? good luck. and God? bless the soldiers! bri :)

i mainly came to this page in order to add you to my scant and in-need-of-additions Favorite POETS list! that done, i might as well read the poem. ;) ah! i think someone is referring to my homeland: the magnificent (in some ways) (not in others, perhaps) U.S. of America! ! and perhaps Mr. Pscho ** has the first name (this time) of Donald? i won't tell him; he might blush. (continued) ..

You have said it exactly, the ones preaching peace are the biggest perpetrators of war, their economy depends on it. Thank you sir
