I Wonder

I Wonder! (Ghazal) Nazim ZarSinner (Each line contains 13 syllables) Aft' irksome work they were sleeping in graves, I wonder! Why the messenger could not free the slaves? I wonder! Where you were? couldn't you lead walker who was dying? Asking, "Found a corpse in dejected caves?" I wonder! Don't you know: ain't blessed the soft hearted sensations? Could not feel for me; for him, your heart craves, I wonder! God is watching everything, even pains of people Then why to troubled people no one saves? I wonder! "Yeah," he says, "now girls do not like the guys with long beards. Are harmful to a boy's face, massive shaves? I wonder." In your cards, king is marked like the dimples of Venus I have A's in my cards and helping knaves, I wonder! Is this universe a shade of something out of sense? What we are if not particles and waves? I wonder! Obviously, obstructions stop significantly Destined, to success how his way he paves, I wonder! October 11, 2021
