Tania 2 Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Tania 2

Tania, it is long we are part
You are left in mountains, by river
I am in flat land, Canada

In a way I have shelved what is yours
In a way I have you on my tongue
On my mind…

And questions avalanche
Roll and kill and grow
Size is vast.

Tania
You never said it all
Of the facts of the time
I arrived you had gone.

What happened?
What went wrong?

Some take you as lover to the Che
To some you, are only mistress
To others KGB’s tough spy

Who were you?
What did you?
Were you all?
What went wrong?

A spy sent by then Kremlin?
A magnet who grabbed the right pole?
A mankind’s best friend who gave life?

Tania
I am far
You are gone
And questions avalanche…
