An elegy for Syria
Following is a poem by Seyed Imon Rizvi who details the agony the West and its allies are imposing on Syria.
After so many countries, now in Syria,
Increasing is the western bacteria,
The bacteria of hypocrisy and lies,
Which is in a dangerous disguise,
Under the banner of help and peace,
They seem like a host of white fleece,
They do things very secretly,
Pursuing interests so actively,
Is what they want just conflicts
In the entire world’s districts?
They like when people kill each other,
It is how they do indirectly smother,
Try to understand what is a war,
Because it opens the profits’ door,
For the imperialists and dictators,
And of course for their own creators,
When imperialists start a broil,
They make sure they pay for their toil
So, they pose to help by selling arms,
As if they are selling them charms!
In return of arms they make money,
So much that it’s not even funny,
On the other hand people also die,
In the region where they don’t comply,
They want the entire world to obey,
They order and want them to okay!
As long as one stays this way,
A nice attitude they will display,
But for instance if one says “NO” to them,
At first they get angry and hem,
And then come bans and sanctions,
Penalties and all kinds of aggressions,
Still if they are not a success,
They wage a war to make stress,
So, that’s what they did in Syria,
It was their anger and hysteria,
Because they couldn’t do anything,
Through a war they wanted to sting,
But they forgot who they were facing,
What kind of enemy they were racing,
They already are, their army, replacing,
And because of defeats they are reducing,
In they then brought a Takfiri horde,
No human values can they afford,
They ruthlessly rip the chests of people,
And eat out their hearts like animal,
So the West and its cruel tactics,
Has nothing to do with ethics,
So, once and for all, everyone,
Let’s finish the savagery thus begun.
