Eid Mubarak

EID MUBARAK

Every Eid is like no other,

Instead of losing, think of gain, gain God’s

Deep graces that are limitless in their faces.

Mubarak, blessed we are for our breath,

Unseal our eyes and ears to hear teachings

Benefitting our earthly and heavenly lives,

Anger is an enemy,  blessed by the devil

Rearing its head to sway us away from

Amplifying our faith and practicing it

Knowing it’s our salvation to enter Jannah.

Review of my poem: Death’s Door

Each time I get a review like this, it motivates me to write more and connect with those who can’t, or won’t, or couldn’t, or shouldn’t be able to express themselves.

This poem is a result of falling back into past trauma based on the wars that’s taking place in the Middle East, Lebanon, Syria,  and P@l3st!ne.

Double Gold Certificate,  Skulled Doorway

Picture inspired poem -exert

Skulled Doorway

The road to Heaven is paved
In squeletons, crania, gaunt roots
And bare branches surrounding the opened
Doorway to a land appearing berefts

Of all humanity, vegetation,
But the barren ground is enrobed
By blues of heavenly hues, a partition
From the deserted ground, …

PALESTINIAN WOMEN SUFFER


Acrostic

Patriots empower the pulverized
Assuming their ability to unify
Leads to greater support
Even when each woman, mother,
Sister, daughter, grandmother has
Truly experienced the power of loss.
In the 150 days of escalations
Neighborhoods have been decimated,
Ire has risen, family trees cut,
Ample theft of property and Palestinians,
Nearly overflowing skin banks with

Women, children, and men’s skins and
Organs are sold illegally, turning a profit,
Meaning Palestinians are being Israeled in
Every way possible. Women
Needing c-section and complicated

Surgeries without anesthesia
Under a cacophony of bombs, snipers
Fixating on murder of medical staff, never
Fearing paying the piper, as they’re
Empowered by arms and tech that
Reveals their cowardice and courage of women survivors.

Women around the world keep your eyes on these courageous women, as the difficulties they’re overcoming are unimaginable.

‘Wish for Peace’, a poem accepted for publication

‘Wish for Peace’ is a poem reflecting on the genocide that we’re all bearing witness to. The images, sounds, emotions, fear, PTSD from bombardments’ effects, aggression, loss of entire families, murder of journalists, and much more are the basis for my ‘Wish for Peace’, not for me, but for them.

Enclosed is an exert of the poem:

…

Their children to schools
With filled bellies of fresh food
Sprinkled with life giving water that drools
In honor of a wish for peace that stood

On the doorstep waiting, waiting …

Platinum Certificate, Wish for Peace

Wish for Peace

The fragile beauty of the dandelion
In my hand, whose grip on land
Dares you to eradicate its presence in Zion
As it spreads through the wish for peace to lend

A hand to those in need of a blend
Of peace in their days of suffering
Without end.
Wish for peace for them to send

Their children to schools
With filled bellies of fresh food
Sprinkled with life giving water that drools
In honor of a wish for peace that stood

On the doorstep waiting, waiting
Patiently for humanity’s response
To help save those whose beliefs, never straying,
Empowers their wish for peace

For a new generation without
The need to revisit the trauma of today’s
Dire escalations of genocides in a bout
Of cataclysmic fear whose only wish is for peace.

Certificate of excellence, Drum Roll, Die

Drum Roll, Die 

Life’s dreams of roses and colored glasses
Have been assassinated by explosions,
Devastation, destruction of homes and gardens,
Where flowers and innocence grew.
In their place, fog, smog, smoke spew
Chocking breaths and arrest hearts that drew
Their last drummer’s beat and fell in death’s pew.
When will their year of restitution
Come to being a realization?
When will they experience the exhiliration
Of being free without groveling?
When will their neighborhoods be overflowing,
Rehousing them, others, a community not governing?

Patience, faith, and unity will invariably
Win the fray always knowing the end is ‘liberty’
While social development soars accordingly.

Cycle of Time, Silver Certificate of excellence

Cycle of Time

Sands of time start with a babe’s
Conception of sperm and ovules,
Its development takes time;
Birth is a necessary hardship for the crime
Of having a babe to nurture and instill
Ethics, beliefs that take root
And can’t be uprooted by a boot.
Into adulthood, it grows and will fill

The shoes that were too large,
But now, too tight as it’s surpassed its cage,
Soared to become a leader, humane
In treatment of others and transcend the bane
Of chaotic filled desires that blinds
Your progress. In time, you’ll regress
Into infancy’s needs while powerless to halt the demise
Of what you’ve forged, ending up loose sands.

Death’s Door, Certificate of Excellence

Death’s Door

The time for death is near,
Near the hearth of family,
Family, whose the sole perpetrator,
Perpetrator of unconditional love.
Love, that’s the ravager of loneliness,
Loneliness that drives despair,
Despair, that’s the cultivator
Cultivator of dispossessed souls,
Souls that needed love, received brutality.
Brutality that’s emotional and physical,
Physical breaks that takes ages,
Ages to mend, but never overcome,
Overcome completely the degradation,
Degradation of Death’s door that opens
Opens for all aggressors who’ve torn,
Torn away at your confidence.
Confidence that you rip out of their palms,
Palms that are covered in blood,
Blood of the innocent who survived,
Survived hell on earth and won,
Won the war over death’s door.

Happy Thanksgiving

Acrostic

Thankful for all I have, and never

Hate others for having more.

Another year and my appreciation grows

Never stopping its exponential climb.

Kneeling before GOD, the only, 

Serving one another the way

GOD commanded us to be brothers,

Including love of all, while

Vying for HIS benevolence as we

Inquire about the reasoning for events

Glorifying death, murder, and immorality.
