Iran And Egypt Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Iran and Egypt

From teens, to my eyes
Relations of Iran and Egypt
Seemed funny; politics.

Look at time and the two
An apple forced under knife or wheel
Cut to piece.

Brothers and sister, my cousins
The knife is politics.

Shah married Fawzia, politics
Shah, Nasser, politics
Shah buried, politics
Once again marriage, politics

I have been to Egypt
VIP, I entered Pyramid
I saw things you don’t see
I took part in fooling your Sadat
We made him US dog
With JATO, in Iran
(As we were.)

Like Nasser I stand straight though in pain.
This can be last walking as was his.
