Degradation



 Look at the everlasting nature!
At its stunning beauty;
At its marvellous gloss;
At its ravishing blossoms;
At its glorious scenes;

How man has spoiled them
Has he not tasted the sensations of nature
Didn't he wonder once how will he live; 
without his mother?

Then, how will he explain his life on Earth?

STRAY CATS

homeless cat on my street.            STRAY CATS     How many stray cats live on every street? How many of them die out of mistreat? Poisoned, shot, tortured by cruel people, attacked by other animals;  Or die of exposure, starvation, or highly contagious fatal diseases And the list goes on and on... But aren't we the best-of-all generations before us, to live this earth? Aren't we more advanced than the ones before us? Then why are the statistics too huge, That every year 2.7 million cats and dogs are killed; Then how do you call yourself more educated than the ones before you, When all your actions expose your half-wittedness; Then how do you call yourself smarter than the ones before you, When all you do is add to their legacy of ignorance; And how high is your IQ?

The walls posh and high raised  The corridors luxurious  The students all immigrants  The architecture standing out  The haya of girls striking me  The simplicity influencing me I could hear my heavy breathing in the silence of the library  Unlike us, they could easily find empty chairs and study rooms I could see cars parked improperly, one car occupying the parking of two  Unlike us, they don’t have to fight over parking and park on the footpath I could clearly understand the Arabic spoken by the girls, Unlike us, they would speak clean Arabic Fus’ha I could feel how an immigrant in an under-developed country, Would feel once bought into this prosperous fantasy la

Tourist (?)

SOMETIMES (Sometimes) I act like a tourist in the city which gave me birth Lost and unexposed... a nomad Wandering on the streets Looking for a charm to catch my eye So I can get obsessed with it and I wish to see it again And again and again... Until it no longer catches my eye Until I can no longer seize its shine So I move on... In search of a new charm to enlighten my soul Sometimes... I act like a tourist in the city which gave me birth  Wandering on the streets Looking for a new charm to catch my eye.
