(i) to Be Replaced By (We)- Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim
(I) to be Replaced by (WE)
By Freeyad Ibrahim
If (I) draw a circle
Around (me)
And (you)draw a circle
around(you)
then (I) am (us)
and (you) are (them)
and so we use (all) our strength and skill
and ingenuity and resources
to (kill) each other
If (we) draw a circle
Around both of (us)
Then(we)are brothers
And there is only (us)
In fact
All wars and refugee crisis
Originally are caused by the two major mights
US &Russia
Every NO from one side
is countered by a big YES
from the other side,
and the Peoples on the whole globe
are torn between the two
mighty YES and mighty NO
That's why disasters continue
Bloodshed, no bread, and dead
Yes Dead
both natural and man-made
Time the NO's and the YES's
Unify
(I) to be replaced by (WE)
and (HIS) by (OURS)
Then say to the WARS
Good bye to you
Freyad Hugo
