Land, Freedom,National Dignity

this poem is about an assasination of a political leader in my country 'Tunisia' may he rest in peace From circles of spoon hiding honey in your cafe cream skin rise the smell of workers,bees and caffeine ... From the bread of golden wheat,humming:our LAND is fertile rise your sunny morning smile ... FREEDOM is your will to cross the street riding the blue morning wind...red roses grow under your feet who has never seen a clear sky,never let the doves on their own, who has not seen you,dump his face in the dirt like sheep do I have seen wolves hiding among sheep that day Cowardice in both is the one who kill you NATIONAL DIGNITY: I cry on crows to go away your body left to feed the earth, never saying Adieu I don't believe in gods, neither shepherd's rule their justice is soaked with blood and wool when all sheep learn that there's no difference between the shepherd and the wolf : they will learn also the LAND, FREEDOM, and NATIONAL DIGNITY.
