Unjustified War
Losing the war-
Who says?!
I see a giant pulling out its head from the rubble-
The grey land!
Demolished Gaza?!
Demolished entire Middle East?!
Oh, lament on you, shame on West!
The North to East to South hates you!
Middle East shows you a big 'D'!
Not an utopia, not a prophecy,
Not a promise, not a claim,
Not a surrender obviously!
The lion will roar again if silenced once-
The tigress will shake the plane again if bothered!
A nation build on true heritage and history,
No insanity, no mystery, no false legacy-
Its currency runs deep-
Deep beneath the veneer -
Reverent and old-
Billions of voices are singing to God to bless it!
Who prays for you?!
You are damned!
You are cursed!
Cursed like- Lilith,
Cursed like- Hedes or Poseidon,
And, you are trembling in fear recalling those cuss words-
Absolutely dissolute you will be, sculpted in scriptures- as God pronounced!
It's not impossible for the 'Supreme' to disown!
Once you were out of luck and bliss-
You hit the rockbottom,
Traveled like a beduin- one land to the other,
God punished you with stones and feathers!
One peeble, one beak, one tiny mosquito,
Even an ant could be a reason for your downfall-
Not mythical, but premordial- archetypal!
Waiting to witnessing a miracle-
The oracle rang and time reversed now-
Waiting to scream loud and clap hard on your downfall!
Once the Almighty announced,
Abu Lahab- should be annihilated!
So shall you and your both hands!
