ON MIDDLE EAST
Then, Men Witnessed How
Sweet Love Fragrances
Diffusing Through Jars Of
hope Got Polluted By
Stench Odours Of Hate Oozing
From Armpits Of Politicians;
"Gourmands Feasting
On The Breasts Of the
Economy"
They Heard How Loud Notes
Made By Missiles, C & D Majors,
Formed In Torn Hearts Of
Next- Tomorrows, Metamorphosed
On The Lips Of Juveniles As Rhythm
Of Blues
how the Warmth Of Arid
Breeze Oozing From The Ruins
Of The Sahara, cuddled with fear
On The Nudity Of Their Skins
Lo! They Came Across A Bevy Of
Men Dressed In Dusty Regalia,
Defecating Rockets On Civilizations.
