No one knew her birthday But they dragged her like The goat of their war, She did not let flames eat her But called the local radio to- Recite poetry, its Rumi’s land. Dari and her beauty eloped with Uncle Sam's heartless lads, The land no longer of brave men- Shovels and rich coal mines; Today they are editorials of NYT And international helplines. Where are the cowboys? The mysterious eyes? Why are the muslin trousers- Red? And why is the pop culture Hiding under rich black curtains? Come out! Come out safely! Do not let them shoot your Child, do not cultivate terror- Bonsais. Stop! Stop being poor, Stop being needy, they’re Killing you, little, every day, Your own ****** traitors! Give a final applaud to their- Bombing! Get back your land, Get back the air, water and Your tomorrows. I’ll wait for You to come outside the radio, Its Rumi’s land.
