De-Humanizing Pause
The Western lords of hypocrisy now sue for a 'humanitarian pause',
like crows screaming in wilderness, bathing in the river of Islamophobia.
They water the garden of their own colonial history
and collect new memories, pseudo-solutions hidden under mirages,
keeping the facade to relieve them
in the bitterness of the seasons
and mix pity with treachery, their illustrious 'soft power'.
A temporary pause in the killing fields is another license to kill.
