Find Me a Genie For Satellites Are Not Good
The mathematics and game theory-
‘isms’ and unipolarity-
barely gets through my head for ‘what they are?’ my satellite never told me-
So, please! Find me a genie
Find me a gene for now I know-
These paradox of Bir Gurkhas
Of Clever Bush and Obama;
Of Hitler and Russia, and of Strict- Isolated CHINA;
They are not who I want to hear about-
I want to hear the stories of children of Palestine-
Women of Iraq- Afghanistan and Pakistan
So, Please ! find me a genie who could predict;
How many times would a heart tremble?
Heart of a brother who’s been mocked-
mocked by the system invisible -
they say he in bullets looks adorable
Find me a genie- he could show me,
the crystal-
for I wish to see struggle
struggle of those who’s childhood was not easy;
WHY?
Because, they were raped and their parents were murdered
they were never said ‘you are human, a beautiful creature’
and were made to play with missiles- the dead ones
American; Russian; Italian; and the list goes on
I wish to see it all;
For I want to behold- those falling tears-
tears of mourn for deceased-
tears of joy for who survived-
tears of love and hatred-
I wish to drink it all and fill my lake
Find me a genie for I need to fill my lake
for I see it is empty
And the fishes in there are going thirsty-
They have thirst of truth-
they are hungry of reality-
They wish to drink love for they were being fed poison-
For chemicals were being drained from big giant industries of satellite
So, please! I beg- find me a genie for satellite ain’t good
(title of the poem inspired by movie Turtles can Fly)
