Revelation In Dream Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Revelation in dream

Reading of the Gathas,
Message of Zarathustra,
Takes me to the Big Bear,
Him, asking for four years.

Gathas are my lessons
Zarathustra, ancestor…

Like many children
That have lost a parent
I look for DNA to trace.

Who am I, from where?
Why did I end here?

In search of ancestor,
Zarathustra, The Great,
I found me a teacher,
For whom I, have respect,
Is same as Zoroaster,
His name is Chief Big Bear.

The settlers called him names,
Rose their guns to murder
And silence prophet…

They choked him,
Beyond death.

I will read and spend
All my time and efforts
To make sure he remains.

He, like the prior
Must be used as candle
In the darkest tunnel
To shed light by flame.

Zarathustra and Big Bear
Believed in same concept,
They dreamt of Great Spirit.
