I hide my eyes
So not to see
I can’t anymore
.
Flowers crushed at the foothill
Daggers slashing lilies in the neighbourhood
Tearing them to pieces
Orphaned Poppies weeping in agony
begging for help
Anyone there?
.
I can’t anymore
.
A humiliated father, a home pulled down
A terrorised child, a bleeding wound
A mother traumatised, burying her beloved
The blind-hearted, blind-minded
Still splashing his cheeks with blood
Is there more?
.
I can’t anymore
.
Sanctuaries desecrated, disgraced
Ostracised Jerusalem pleading for help
To no avail
Arab-leadership, naked and subdued
Monsters against each other
Lambs and sheep in front of invaders
Drunken in the arms of molesters
Who wants more?
.
I can’t anymore
.
I hide my eyes
So not to see
I can’t anymore

“I can’t anymore”
I can’t anymore because my people (those hypocrites!) betrayed God, the Prophet and the Jihaad to protect me, humankind and the earth they were given in trust.
