Sighs Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Sighs

Amidst his surprise and anger,
-with elbows resting on a table
-being host to his head in his
-palms…deeply sighs:
- "These friends…these flies…"
-pictures Mom:
- "…only land on honey…
-…food, sweet, your money…"

Now, fallen off cliff
-climbed down past living
-bankrupt, and poor being
-forgotten and ignored
-is dealt with"
- "You? ",
- "Never! "
- "Forget him! ! ! "

"These flies…" he repeats:
- "These nothings! "
- "These shameless deficits…"

Sees his Dad in front,
-sitting inside frame,
-though long dead
-is alive and blunt:
- "…one that had not…"

He helps Dad to finish:
- "…peed on us…
-…was crow…
-…that loose ass! "

With comments is settled
-reviews what has heard:
- "Life moves on a circle…"
- "Has been so, is always…"
- "When it rains it showers…"

Looks around with sorrow and murmurs
- "To fallen, even dumb, becomes a lecturer! ! ! "

Feels his Dad in front,
-sitting in a frame,
-though long dead
-is alive, mesmerised:
- "The one that had not yet…"

He helps Dad to finish:
- "…peed on us…
-…was crow…
-…that loose ass! "

Feels settled with comments
-he recalls, reviews phrases:
- "Life moves on a circle…"
- "Has been so, is always…"
- "When it rains it showers…"

Looks around with sorrow and murmurs
- "To fallen, even dumb, becomes a lecturer! ! ! "
