Sparrow Way Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Sparrow way

My head is in place
-so are eyes, neck and legs
-must praise the Heavens
-for having left hell safe

But heart is broken
-this mirror is shattered
-reflect face of a girl
-in every particle

Dignified and polite was the girl
- (poverty took her there!
-to live in worst slum and ghetto!)

The wild guys, half-drunk
-joked and talked very loud
-in their looks saw the thorns
-making her shiver, cold
-feeling forced, undressed
-looks-needles-penetrate
-into each, every part

God, please, if you are
-either help to give hand
-or turn heart into rock
-senselessness into mind
