On The Wings Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

On The Wings

Rating: 4.0


On the wings

On the wings of news
-leave Danforth
-leave the dead and blood
-leave it all to police,
-metamorphic…

Now, I am in sky
-see the world,
-see in time.

Hear barks in White House
-to Tehran, and replies:
- "Peace with us is with world
-as is war…"

I recall same drums
-Bush, Cheney, Karzai:
-WAR, WAR, WAR…
-with Afghans and Saddam.

Still shouts Taliban,
-TALIBAN...
-KURD, IRAQ…

See the-killer-friends
- (not angels but devils)
-around old Persian Gulf.
-Command-post in Riyadh
-and in the capital
-that ordered removal, ‘White Helmets'
- (copying past action; Entebbe's.)

Some puppets are free
-destroying the peace
-as Sarah, Abraham
- (After left the Pharaoh
-to land in Palestine.)

Study their income
-see through Moses' laws
- (Racism, women, land.)

Now, feel God;
-I see Earth, is small
-am above all mankind,
-on the Earth, see as one
- (regardless of race, sex)
-together seem like bees
- (in one hive)
-or the ants on a mount
- (of one nest…)

Aimless, they soar, fly
Run, Run, Run…non-stop!

Where to?
Why?

Conclude:
"Be born, die! "
"For few days crawl! "
"Use knowledge and tricks! "
"Kill, be killed! "

Leave behind what you got!
(With efforts, with lies, rob!)

Therefore, I burst and laugh
-laugh at what news said:
-Libya, Lebanon, Syria,
-Yemen to Caribs and Venezuela,
-Africa and Arabs and slaves.
-Then laugh at the unsaid:
-of Europe, Britain
- (invasions and murders.)

No reference to fall of Ottomans!
No mention of the lies of London!
No word on the birth of Afghan-o-Pakistan!
Ignored is "The North-South Korea"!
(And the cause, reason, why! ! !)
Forgotten are roots of problems
-of Mid Eat, Asia...world-around!
Medicine works only if disease recognised.
