Arab Poems - Poems about Arab

We can them assemble, For they still resemble. It won't things dissemble Nor the whole world crumble Nor Men cause to amble... They won't burn like bramble From moves to assemble: While others Adamic, Both also Abrahamic: Not one part Semites, And the other Hamites... Sure,some voice would grumble, "A Meant Bull!" mumble: Risks of death's preambles, For Union a shambles... Arabs and Zionists: Their least loved unionist......

Between us now a big dam: When one weighs it: big gram! I've just declined his fat ram; Today, returned his fat yam And it was a blow - A Bam! No more his sweets in mouth cram Arab against Uncle Sam: On his high ways: Traffic Jam!... Demanded parcels he'd got To a friend buffet in court: Tenant nuisance out to harm Show The Law's...

Laughing more than necessary And beginning from Beginning, Jane about Joan and accessory: "She'd looked like one a game winning, Her blouse ungodly and real scary; To even far - off eyes lots meaning, Warden to reject stories fairy: Breasts like ones a new baby weaning, Still, a nose ring but bare back And as she walked oft looked back... "Are these what you might...

Satan can’t leave Holy Jerusalem, Rather planning to crowd her with Anselms But as sooner with warring Salims: A Theatre of Furnace fueled by felt menace; Hand-made Arab Bombs for David’s Palace! Satan is there in Jews’ Holy City But not there to that idea pity Packages that should make God cry ‘’Oh!’’ And to Angel Michael ‘’Now, Go!’’ He, Satan,...

He does not treasure his link With four Arab Terrorists: Men who’d pretended they could think But for their savage strikes, Humorists… He shall his thoughts bare and not blink “His haters now whisky glasses clink And in The Blue Sky also pick out Pink”. This is no picture of A Challenged Scenarist, Rather A Good Nose’s for the smell of An Animist Off...

Some men keep real cool at gunpoint Having been swimming in the company of the military, The nozzles of guns surveying in moments solitary: Witnesses to soldiers dipping their fingers in wallets For the purchase of that spitting out the bullets. Some men keep grinning at gunpoint, Because at them pistols have been pointed many times And no ugly story followed...

Mahmoud Darwish English Translations of Arabic Poems Palestine by Mahmoud Darwish loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch This land gives us all that makes life worthwhile: April's blushing advances, the aroma of bread warming at dawn, a woman haranguing men, the poetry of Aeschylus, love's trembling beginnings, a boulder covered with moss, mothers who dance to the flute's sighs, and the invaders' fear of memories. This land gives us all...

Here We Shall Remain by Tawfiq Zayyad loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch Like twenty impossibilities in Lydda, Ramla and Galilee ... here we shall remain. Like brick walls braced against your chests; lodged in your throats like shards of glass or prickly cactus thorns; clouding your eyes like sandstorms. Here we shall remain, like brick walls obstructing your chests, washing dishes in your boisterous bars, serving drinks to our...

The 9-11 terrorists are lowest scum, for they did their evil against USA and the innocents of this world, in the name of their god. George Floyd and I are as much their victim as we are victims of American racism and hubris. The 9-11 terrorists gave the White police, then every state in the world...

On caparisoned, filleted camels do they Over the great, soft, tawny sands Ride; Unfurled flags and tribal standards flown amidst them, In the very midst of them- Of they, who astride great tan camels, Seem rather scandent and saltant. These are the irregular, well-armed cavalry of the "Men In Ambush," for such is the literal translation of their Nation's...

A gigantic sail looms, above the sea, Anchored by steel braces, of creativity, Start of a journey, from an island beyond the surf, Into the hour, of the twenty-first century turf. High above the mast, the yard hangs free, For ‘sailor guests’ to dine, in exclusivity, They watch boats set sail, on the sea, And relinquish the skyline, of an exotic city. Beyond...

A pockmarked plane atop the wooden box tilts as it dips in the Syrian void, its hollow compartment lining the faults like a silver ball which never rests but always rolls, always weary those worrisome holes that chisel the quarry to calcified clumps. Six years spent fighting, flushing freedom from his nepotistic keep, have rendered al-Assad a face full of age, nights...

Drogue, Rogue. Arab beauty. Special Heir. Jump up-down. Slice like an Arab Ninja. What is the blade? Sharp point with Arab Brittle. Separate from the end. Muller Tick-Tock. Poison the Tyrant. Bomb the Oppressors And, swordplay....
