Life Circle Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Life Circle

With spoon, scavenge
-in meat of a chicken
- (already, prepared
-with many spices.)

No one else
-just myself
-feel ashamed,
-embarrassed!

Feel its life as circle;
-it was egg, hatched
-and then…

Man gave it a short life;
-behind bars, in cages.

Ate as fed, off cases
-to grow, fast, larger.

What a hell!
What a hell!
What a hell!

Wish there was no circle
-of the birth and growth,
-all the way to the death…

Wish had been a stone
-on a side of mountain…

But who knows?

I recall the La-Paz and mountains
-with stones on their sides,
-which had been of rivers
- (obviously currents
-that rolled them
-and wore them,)

Damn the life, its circle!
