The Dead Can Not Hear Us And Some Of Those Who Are Still Alive Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

No wnoder
If we can say that
The dead can not hear us anymore
Simply because they passed away earlier and
We can say boldly that
Some who are still alive
Can not hear us anymore too,
Sorrowfully the dead people and
Some of those who are still alive whom
We know can not hear us at all
For many and many reasons,
It is difficult to consider how
Those who are still alive
Can not hear us at all,
We understand that the dead can not hear us
Simply because they rest quietly
In their dark tombs, but
We can not understand those who walk
In front us and
They either can not hear us or
They avoid to hear us,
This is the way
With the world around us
For many and many reasons
Which we do not understand at all.
