I Tried To Tweak My Soul From Color To Black And White, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.
i gave up
hard as i tried
because blood
gives testimony
of our ancestral
heritage of pain
i cried . with
every slash
of the blade
i died
came back
to life re surging
the essence
of hussain
i could not hide
his silhouette
his spirituality
in its stride
by my humble
side
shah ast hussain
badshah ast hussain
an echo of revolt
against yazidi
terrorism
far and wide ..
a hindu shia
they call me
my humility
my motherland
my karbala
my pride
