Lamb Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Lamb

Guess, not sure
-want to change into lamb
-to bow to dry, damp
-to say yes and accept
-demands of all brutal masters…
-it is best…

Guess, not sure
-am ready to succumb
-to have pain, should agree
-with the loss, ignore gain with a "Yes"!
-to the bad, regardless
-be Nigger and slave
-forget past, my culture
-my homeland, regardless!

Guess, not sure
-this is the lambs', cow's way
-giving wool, milk, carne
-as the hen gives her
-child before any birth
-and as egg!

Guess, not sure
-it has root in our food
-the seeds and vegetables
-fruits and green leaves
-so I must ignore meet
-milk and fish

Guess, not sure
-must stick
-to their meals…
-let me be…
-ox to horse…
-any pet…
-cow, lamb, hen…

So…
-good bye human,
-freedom! ! !
