Occupation |
Carving up your bloodstained maps |
With cartographic canine thirst |
Waking worlds long crystalized on sands forgotten |
Border lines, etched by masters false and fleeting |
Open wide, this chasm of injustice never bridged |
Balancing zionistic zealotry unrestrained |
Rivalries atavistic crack the Levant sea to sea |
60 years from inception, refugees god-mistaken |
Open insurrections catapult your crises on Turning into… |
Conundrums, zero sums, quandaries |
(The jargon of your failing States) |
Debacles, empires, quagmires |
(The parlance of hubris unleashed) |
How can you say you «come in peace»? |
Occupiers- Gullivers, Trampling |
Through places that you don’t belong |
Occupiers- Goliaths, Trampling |
Across the world through parts unknown, |
(where what you break is what you own) |
And here we fucking go again… |
Red sunrise, on a Green Zone island fraught with doom |
just beyond, the Fertile Crescent more looks like the moon |
stocked with, stateless actors, proxy war-contractors, |
crude, black gold beneath them -praise to God for liberation! |
frozen aspirations, endless retributions, choked full, prisons cells, |
democracy- save us from ourselves! |
Blood on the streets of Haditha, Gaze on Gaza divine |
the architects of oppression use fear to control the mind |
Faux forays and foreign ventures lost, colonial catastrophes unveiled |
They’re crawling back- those old dictators, collaborators, |
your beasts that don’t seem to die… |
