Children of Afghan
Poisonous laburnum hang downwards, These dusty streets, Hot as herbs and spices, Touching deep buttery Panjshir Valley, The Great Highland Bagpipes. Sweaty, I will tell you, About hegira-state, Our rugged landscape, Our legendary generosity, The children of Afghan. Dad, Valley of the Five Lions? The legend of five spiritual guardians?...

The Afghan Beast of War
Cries of agony Desert land No-person zone No man’s land No man can control the dusk and sand Tanks squashing the houses No hope No hospitals No food No life Just battle Guns The bullet Evil deadly bullet Armies formalise To take over the no man’s land None survive Because the ones who live in the desert Aren’t men They are heroes A consequence of war Twisted surface Twisted desert No person’s imaginable fate The sky turns A church...
