Home Sweet Home

http://www.zibashirazi.com/ziba_005_Eng.htm

Come! Come closer. Look at this peep-show of colorful stories.

Open your eyes wider! War is rampant everywhere.

These days, the bride of the East, has on

a necklace made of cartridges.

Don’t bring her a gift! A rifle only is her dowry.

Alas, the home, the sweet home, is war-ridden now.

This is the neighborhood of the homeless children.

Watch out! Don’t kick the empty box, lest it might be their dwelling spot.

From morning till night, they look after work, hoping to earn some bread.

At night they lay down, hoping they might dream of a home in sleep.

Alas, the home, the sweet home, is war-ridden now.

This young man is our brother, an addict, and a loner.

Again he has lost his mind, he has been high for days and nights.

This young one rests in the prison corner waiting his turn for execution tomorrow.

His cellmate states that his turn is also right around the corner.

Alas, the home, the sweet home, is war-ridden now.

The executioner’s hand is in this, the friend’s head hung up on the gallows.

Stones in the town square attest to the arriving time of stoning.

This is no God’s doing! Satan’s plot is in all this.

And sky is weeping blood over the demise of justice.

Alas, the home, the sweet home, is war-ridden now.

Alas, the home, the sweet home, is gone is, it is gone by now.
