Loneliness


It creeps up on you  

Overtime 

in slow motion 

Stretching 

Unending 

You feel parched

Hungry 

You become mute 

It crushes you 

You crumble into yourself 

You’re pulverized 

And 

You vanish

          My city,  You have filled my heart with longing for the future,   and tears of sadness in my eyes.  Goodbye my city,  Goodbye earthen walls,  In  you I found the joys of belonging.  I still remember the damp smell of your alleys and  And the sound of the black crows.  The shadows of your twilights have fallen on my future,  And your sunrises are in my heart.  Goodbye my city,  Goodbye my childhood. Armineh Amirian Zohrabian 1972 Arak, Iran.

My Wish For Christmas

Image
    My Wish For Christmas I don’t want anything for myself this Christmas I’ve got everything I need. What I really want,  Is an end to all wars in the world, All weapons destroyed, All prisoners of wars freed. I want no human trafficking or slavery anywhere. For all children to be fed and in school. No sweat shops to exist. No dictators, no tyrants and no kings. For corporations to be ethical  Polluters to stop the destruction of our planet. I want blue skies  Clear oceans, lakes and rivers Green forests and jungles Fruit trees and shrubs heavy with bounty Golden wheat fields swaying with the breeze. I want peace, peace, peace forever. My wish is for a Christmas miracle.

Copycat

At the horizon, behind the mist Mountains Picking out here and there, Sable, steel and powdery gray. Sky is bathed in shades of blue Shimmering white A dusting of sun light. The sky is amazing, astonishingly, Breathtakingly Beautiful. The skies make me question Why man needs to copy nature, When we are so sadly inapt. Paintings, photos Man made snow and grass, Indoor tropics So hideous and unreal, Why even try... Look up at the sky Go to the beach and gaze Sit on the riverbank Pick any flower And just let your spirit Be rapt. Let the essence of this grandeur Let pure blessed nature, Lift your soul.
