Afghanistan
Afghanistan…the land of occupation…?
From Britain…to Russia…to America…no love…a dove…?
Some military actions…referential contractions…
Moral destruction…resistance of fractions…
Country so poor…exposure to more…
Land mines…air strikes…the likes…
Hey man…what is the plan..?
Years of being a stronghold…as we are told…
From the Taliban to Al-Qaeda…the resistance seems wider…
The country…so hungry…
For survival…see the arrival…
Of foreign forces…any resources…?
For food…shelter…education…clothing…transports…?
The report…of the UN…the world food program…UNICEF…
Corruption…drugs…thugs…any hugs...?
The children…the pawns…in the storms…
The bombings…so damning…the innocents…the guilty…
The wounded…the dead…the counts…still mounts…
The cries…the lies…the truth…the root…
The news…the views…the critics…the rhetoric’s…
The politics of change…the range…
Of assessment…of the situation…is it a nation…in depletion…?
The costs…for the arms…it alarms…
