United Nations <br /> <br /> <br />Working day and night you build mountains of paper, <br /> and then at a hard punch by arrogant Sharon <br />your room and hillock crumble down, <br /> and they dissolve into their air <br /> like so many pieces of torn paper. <br /> <br />Can you tell me, O UN, how much more blood <br /> will the Palestinians have to give <br /> to get back their last motherland? <br /> <br />How many more genocides will have to be <br /> perpetrated there? <br />How long more will this desert land <br /> have to wail in distress? <br />How long more will human killings have to go on <br /> in afflicted Palestine? <br />How many more Arab children have to be sacrificed <br /> at the altar of the west to appease its blind gods? <br /> <br />Tell me, O UN, how long more will the expelled Arabs <br /> have to wander like bewildered people <br /> with the chimerical charter of peace <br /> hung around their necks? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ------<br /><br />Shafiqul Islam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/united-nations/
