Freak Wave
You came onto my life
Like a freak wave
Everything rose,
Then crashed over the deck
The Pursuit of Happiness
Happiness pursues me
But she is not my match.
I will always beat her
In this game of catch.
The Tamed Shrew
What a waste
The tamed shrew –
She could have won an Olympic gold,
She could have been a magnificent mime,
She could have written plays better than Shakespeare,
Excuse the sacrilege
American Skies
I like to be
Stranger in a Strange land
Like to not be
where you are from
where I’m from
Not belong
an Other
Matrix
When inside,
You wish – out
So as to witness from a distance
How it ripples, waves…
When outside,
You wish – in…
Women of Kobani
No, you aren’t fighting just for your people,
The Kurdish Braves,
But for all of us,
The 51 percent –
The 100 percent.
