Kufa upon Euphrates
dusty words
abel and cain
masada, karbala
blood shed
for land, women, gods
the red flows
even evaporates instantly
in 2003 after the cross
1423 after the migration
protestations aside
blood will flow again
over newer gods
with
insatiable thirst
unbothered
my god smiles
this i do not fathom
but what do i know?
this hussain
who is to meet his yazid
is no hussain
nor the one
from the south of the north
a bushman
this i know
dusty words
we should, but learn not
