As We Must Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

As We Must



As we must

George Orwell wrote a book; of the farm
A fable that we read; right or wrong.

Best part is:
We are all equal “but some…more equal.”

To see right we have to sharpen eyes.

Let’s dive in the ocean, with, without snorkel
Of the time:
Christians divided by Luther and fell Pope.
Extremes, some with and, against guns

Some chose the wheelbarrow and shovel,
Fell trees, on the land grew wheat and crops
And the pigs; and horses, sheep and cows.

Fox, jackal, wolf, tiger, everything to insects
Grew less, less and less, very rare, to extinct
And the birds, and the fish, everything.

Increased the mankind, example Mennonites.

And result?

Disaster…died nature…we became addicted
To lot of medicines in bottles, and boxes…
Labels say: “made of…” fruits, vegetables,
The once man’s daily meal, are now rare,
With them we ate insects, plenty, protein.

Why not walk in reverse?

Let trees regrow everywhere
Bring back the fruits and the birds and insects
Change regime from pig and the sheep and the cow
To what gives Mother Earth, among them the insects
Live in love with nature, as we must
Reduce pigs and cows, increase others with insects.
