Poem

Bullet between the eyes, graveyard of dreams, demise. 
Running bloodily through the fields 
As the poppies to opium, they do give yield 
Out on the fields with the mujahideens 
Praying to an empty sky, drinking out of latrines 
Loyalty to excess, their seventh heaven machines 
Out of a book misused, misquoted, for such 
‘heavenly’ deeds. 

Up the Silk Road fast as he can 
Out to raid the gold-loaded caravans
Enemy in his territory 
Headed out to Afghanistan 
Going to buy himself some powder 
With this prizes of fine jewellery
Ore from the ground, black gold, opal 
Measure against the dollar, coal and coffee 
He made a bet he could bring them all down 
Before they crossed into Tibet.

The darkness amidst innocents in the danger 
Zone of despair, nobody cares for a stranger. 
There is intimacy in conversation 
That causes me a little hesitation 
The cautious investigation in the eyes 
All angels are just manipulators in disguise. 
Holier-than-thou is a convenient act for now 
Soon, the promises broken behind backs 
After the wine and the taking of a vow 
Dig in heels into the sand, and get in the bed now. 

If the railroad’s end comes down to her 
As a destination, I will jump the rails 
And run just to get away from her 
The kind of friend she is, an enemy 
Stalking in the night while talking familiarly 
All the time, in secret, laughing at me.
