What Comes Next? Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

What comes next?

What am I?
A serpent?
-guardian to a vase?
-venomous? Dangerous?
-a serpent…or the vase…?
-vase filled with treasures?
-or expert? Arts' master?
-or trash? A nonsense?

What am I?
-why powers are afraid?
-have no sword…have no gun…
-and no bomb nor drone…
-why powers and the dumb are afraid?
-why so much barrier?
-why face walls after walls?

What am I?
-a fighter?
-forcefully immigrant?
-refugee of self-made troubles?
-or rebel to the laws…cruel ones?
-or convict? A martyr?
-or guilty? Criminal?

What am I?
-feared or
-fearful
-fearsome?
-or scared?
-of the death
-of an end?

Hey someone or something tell me what…
-did I know of my birth?
-after birth?
-did I not see and learn then after?
-why fear of going to unknown?

Why stay with question?
-why not go discover depth of cave! ! !
