Poem
Silent Lies and Deception In the silence of murky waters There slithers oily snakes of the night Wearing masks of deception Beware of fools singing with Stalin’s tongue The KGB shall set you free Drowning you in the river Volga The cold water keeping your lips tight Whilst the silent ones spread their deceits Lies, lies their dirty little lies I wonder how their tongues wag and loudly sprout So righteous, like imams with out a doubt I call for radio silence When comes the clique of hate They say they have none, and Maybe this is true They run out at times, spreading it to you Those who truly have good will and peace Growing like flowers in a botanical heaven Never spew the bloody insecticides here on earth That alters the genes of peace in me and you Beware of white sheep That howls like the wolf at the full moon A wise man knows the meaning of silence Silent ones simply slither sneaky prose in the night The Caspian Sea Holds many ghosts who if not for death Could tell you many silent tales Of those with a million smiles and twisted masks Seekers of the Silent Lies and Deception Dead Sea and salty tombs Silent in womb Notes: The last poems Angel and Devil, about mans ability for both good and evil, I continued the theme here, by describing two repressive regimes, Russian under the likes of Stalin and Putin and the Palestinian one under Arafat. The poem is either incomplete or to be continued in a second poem, as in the end I inferred the Silent one Amina, a story about the repression and hardships of women in India. An excellent book by a great author Fiza Pathan.
