We Shall Pass It On Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

We Shall Pass It On



We shall in body, soul and flesh
In death, suffer. We shall pass it on,
Written on the wall,
In destruction and bones of dead.
There cannot be a strained moment,
When like dove takes wings,
Departs my human honor.
And my helplessness
Is another thunder in the sky.
Or pulling my limb from mortar,
Crushed under
Or they lumping my brains like dough -
Or they bathing themselves in my blood.

-To the Palestinian children who are victim of violence
