Yemen
Beauty paving golden streets
Nations vied to enjoy a piece
All have left and in their wake
lies the Yemen confused in a chaotic state
Chaos twirls in a dance with human spirit
intricate paisley starlit designs
curled in nonperfect circle minds
when nature curve to lead to what will be
White bright inkdrops of life lived to the full
fall on exquisite silk fabric
as animals trod on brown dust cobbled chaos
and storms swirl behind veiled burkas and tears dance with fears
Beauty now lay hidden
Women try to wash in the river
but the river is filled with poluted male power games
and the new Yemen life is no longer in a stunning gilded frame
