sylva md poetry new methods turkish invasion

turks invaded years
 going plague 
 half millennium 
 
 dawns dusks

during period left arab nations 
in poverty illiteracy mercy bribes 
they built schools palaces mosques
we did inherit 
 say proud

they took alphabets converted accent 
their language endless grammatical mistakes
 left sacred languageand 
 seized modified latin style

 new methods 
 headed flotilla aid ships *
 trying penetrate kind harts more

 ships arranged humanitarian aid 
 arranged caring humans…arrived 
 soundless corners earth 
 turks confused world remonstrating 
 real martyrs 

 real martyrs 
 did carry knives
 didn’t men ships 
 protest fight stab
 
 principles 
 wanted fight
 wanted genuine message
 true conscious 
 gazaians needed rights
 
 able carry knife
 refuse stab 
 humanitarian side
 
 mourn turkish martyrs
 armenians mourn half million
weaponless humans’ souls slaughtered 
 turkish alsaffahs’s butcher’s hands
