To Columbus Poem by Negar Gorji

To Columbus



Oh God of olive and pigeon
If you can hear me,
Tell Columbus
His promised land
Has turned to a waste land
Where no olive tree
Will have fruit

Oh God of wind and rain
Tell the wind
Not to blow in this land
As it would be suffocated

Oh God of Mount Rushmore
The oracles are wailing
Tragedies are happening

Oh God of olive and pigeon
Have you told Columbus?
