Mask Poem by Sayeed Abubakar

Mask

Rating: 5.0


When everything is covered with mask,
There is no ruler within a ruler;
So, tyranny like a venomous snake
Is snapping;
There is no judge within a judge, no police
Within a police and no soldier within a soldier.
That is why, our justice, discipline, peace,
Motherland and freedom- all are at stake.

People are crying world-wide; people's
Cry and lamentation have filled the earth of God
When the vicious Satan wearing the mask of Man
Is controlling the civilization;
Satan in the guise of Man is killing men
Applying the poison of lie, deception and conspiracy.

The words of Dictionary have lost their meanings;
That is why, Truth hides its face in shame
Behind the curtain of Lie;
Justice taking the shape of injustice shows its ugliness;
Love becoming deception pierces our hearts with knife;
Democracy has turned into a united autocracy.

Where will men flee from the oppression of men?
Rather, men are safer among the snakes, sharks,
Crocodiles and even among the tigers;
Only they have no safety from men!

When a child is not safe with its mother,
When natives are not safe in their motherland,
When life is not safe in water,
When respiration is not safe in air,
That time, what poem do you tell me to compose?
Rather, tell me to steal the trumpet of Israfil
And standing on the middle of this fraud civilization
To blow into that trumpet to declare the doomsday.
