cattle, slave, devil
these are not my names
carved on my desert skin
i am bull's light keeper
looking to free my sisters
~0~0~
i weep for my ancient faith
and sins of all dead tribesmen
like a lost sheep
i weep for more than
40 days and nights
~0~0~
who hears
slaughtering of goats
young girl's tears as she is beaten & tied down
burning of old temples
who?
~0~0
before I'm to be sold
as a gift to black-masked killer,
i make a death wish
wrapping scarves around my neck, so tight
sun razed red soil to ash

I chose to write about the plight of Yadizi women, who are suffering from persecution under the militant ISIS.
