Mopeds, Mercedes Dandelions and daisies Churches Mosques Women masked Exposed eyes Revealing More than the body Ever could. Lingerie Sold openly on the street Olives By the kilogram To fast-talking Fast-walking Men and women Young and old. Ancient ruins, Ruined The fall of one civilization Destroyed Merely to give rise To one that will Only hope to make men Worth remembering. Mystery lies In the lives of artifacts Bare finger tips Graze over frescoes Religion Art Expression Litters every corner Accompanied by waste And poppies Blood red Amidst the gray haze Of cigarette smoke And pollution Clouding the view Of snowcapped mountains Diamond lakes Undisturbed Surrounded by Mopeds, Mercedes Dandelions and Daisies
