Kinds Of Tyranny Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

There are many kinds of tyrannies
In which we live them in ourselves or
We see them around us and
Which we count them or
We don't count,
Out of these
Ourselves' tyrannies
Which is the worst kind of tyranny,
Money's tyranny and
Wealth,
Thoughts' tyranny,
Illusions' tyranny,
Arrogance's tyranny,
Power's tyranny, and
Other tyrannies...
We are tyrants in nature
Simply because we want to prevail
For anything,
We are tyrants, but
We might feel or
We might not feel, but
It depends upon what each one of us thinks,
Our tyranny is sometimes stronger than
Anything in nature around us,
It is painful to be tyrants, but
We don't feel that,
It is painful too to feel that
We are tyrants, but
We don't control our tyranny,
Tyranny is painful,
Not for anything, but
We are weak and
We want to prevail
In some way,
It is the moment of our weakness and
Regretfully our tyranny dies
Next to our death whereas
It melts like the salt
Melts in water
For ever and ever...
