War Poem by Kianush Maleki

War



no time to waste, no way to go
perhaps it's right time to show

The bridge behind was blazed up
The road ahead is burning up

the sun never sets in this land
any second a bomb may land

friends and folks dead in a killing lot
mums and foetuses just received a shot

rape's been recommended to soldiers
every heart receives many tortures

weapons rule their minds
uzi, colt and many of kinds

so easy to let their finger
pulls back a light trigger

people fall as leaves do in fall
children cry as dads get null

void of mercy, lack of humanity
bullets fly under mean of audacity

God bless formers, men with rakes
but his angel is busy and just takes

lives of the raped girls in a bloody shape
losing lovers and love makes us gape

no matter how far there is bullet in a heart
an innocent human is my body part

the further i step every night
the darker it gets, a fight for might

dim is future of this land
vim of life has been banned
