Knife
Peace, harmony, laughter, love and lust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Life turns death to life reborn
Syria
The wheel spins full circle
We are torn
Iraq
On the rack of our own device
‘twixt the Spirit and the Flesh
We are born we die
Afghanistan
We laugh we cry
Yemen
We engender countless Fantasies
to reap imagined reward
Saudi Qatar Oil and Gas
Alone we die into the dawn
Forever flawed!
Lacklustre brilliance
We remain poor children
Gone insane
Impassive to the Wretched’s
plight as they migrate
Birds without Flight
Wings torn Asunder
Europe
Drones, starvation, hunger
We are born we die
we laugh we cry
America your Freedom lost
we engender countless children
of our mind’s eye
yet still Cruelty prevails
Australasia
among one another and to our own selves
be we untrue blind and lie
Barrel bombs, Lamborghinis too
Luxuries of the select few
Russian intervention

I am arrested, I am in prisonLike a bird without wingsHomeless, in the prison of my blue burqaWith its small window like an empty cageBut I am used to it, used to its smellWearing it, the sky falls on my shouldersI am bored, tired of looking at the skyI search my way in darknessI can’t feel, I don’t know what life isI am arrested in this prison, I have to stayIn my burqa prisonIt is always cold with stale airI always see the same thingI have dreams in my prisonDon’t limit me!How long do you want me to stay like this?By Balquis
