Poem

I can’t open my eyes because I fear
To see the hell they build here every day.

They kill those who go against them.
They shoot them which way a hunter shoot birds.
They kill them which way a tiger kills deer.
They destroy them which way a bombing plane destroys a city.

I can’t open my ears because I fear
To hear the lies they tell here every day.

They call them terrorists who go against them.
They call them terrorists who they shoot like birds.
They call them killers who they kill mercilessly.
They fill earth with injustice in the name of establishing justice.
In the name of establishing democracy, like lions
They jump upon the lives of the people.
They become inhumane in the name of ensuring humanity.
They hate but they say they love.
They destroy but they say they construct.

O God, your earth has gone in the hands of beasts.
The liars have filled your earth with lies.
Truth has been ousted from every door.
I fear to open my eyes and open my ears.
