A Shia Blogger Never Sleeps

in back clothes
he is clad
when the alams come
he will remove
his shirt
do blade matam
like his dad
the coming of age
of a hyderabadi lad
ghame hussain
an eternal moment
of pain very sad
a spiritual agony
that makes them mad
they accuse us
of blood shedding
but maintain
a eunuch silence
when suicide bombers
do deeds bad
in every
shia city
karbala baghdad
muslims love killing muslims
a sectarian launch pad
tears on the soul of
a bleeding notepad
a shia blogger
never sleeps
a poetic pause of pain
nothing more to add
