("Abu shafshufa" is dead and china is dead silent) <br /> <br />As raggedy women line up for rice. <br />A scraggly head is killed by mice. <br />Across the seas they huddle in Nice. <br />Err not crooks! In pursuit of vice. <br /> <br />Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush. <br />Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush. <br /> <br />Voracious monkeys now divide a pie. <br />Silent for now, the planes that fly. <br />Farther down east the Alawites fry. <br />Tunisians too, at the hustings cry. <br /> <br />Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush. <br />Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush. <br /> <br />Tharir is simmering and bubbling below. <br />Funds and greenbacks loose their glow. <br />The colossus' legacy blow by blow, <br />and Cyclops' eye festers and flows. <br /> <br />Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush. <br />Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush. <br /> <br />Swills and thrills unabated gleam. <br />As wild-west's train looses steam. <br />Twists abound for a mongering realm, <br />as ageing wine in futons beam. <br /> <br />Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush. <br />Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush. <br /> <br /> <br />original <br />saadat tahir <br />14-03 2k11 <br />(Islamabad) <br /> <br /> <br />Glossary: <br />Confucius: http: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confucius <br />Mings: http: //www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2006-05/31/content_604588.htm <br />"shafshufa": http: //wikileaksnews.net/its-over-abu-shafshufa-died-said-rebel-fighter-to-aisha-gaddafi.html <br />Alawites: http: //www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2006-05/31/content_604588.htm <br />Tharir: http: //occupywallst.org/article/tahrir-square-times-square-protests-erupt-over-150/<br /><br />saadat tahir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/confucian-mings-watch-in-a-hush-2710-2k11/
