Our City's Curfew Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Our City's Curfew

Rating: 4.0


No one imposed any curfew On our city's streets and roads, but It seems like a real curfew... Only ghosts and shadows Are anywhere and everywhere... Longer blackouts are happening on A daily basis... It's Winter outside With its cold atmosphere Anywhere and everywhere... Barking dogs run through those Empty streets and roads... Hunger and famines are clear around... Winds are blowing through those streets and roads... People are rarely seen outside Due to many unquestionable reasons... The whole city looks like its inhabitants Deserted its houses for ever... People are scared due to many horrible reasons... No one dares to open his doors or her doors To anyone... Volleys of bullets are heard by day And by night with no traces To those shooters... Everything is dark and gloomy Simply because fear prevails Anywhere and everywhere... Life is unbearable and the whole scene Of our city's streets and roads Is unlovely and completely vague... It's not absolutely acceptable To be in a lifeless life... Death is life and life is death For those poor people who are helpless... And that unknown curfew goes on Until another further notice.... ______________________________________________________________________
