“Love Thy Neighbour”
We have all
Heard this before
But unfortunately
The whole world
Is engulfed in
Hatred Violence
Revenge & war!
To you all
I may be barking
Up a wrong tree
According to our
Prophet Zarathushtra
He must be thinking:
“How sharper than
A serpents tooth it
Is to have a thankless child”
Don’t be fooled
If it becomes mandatory
For a woman to
Wear a Hijab
And cover oneself
From head to toe
Be under the control
Of your men folk
24/7/365
As for men mandatory
No longer drinking and
Long beards to grow.
When one realizes the
Freedom that we
Take & took for granted
Is gone and will
Never be
replaced
Do not go on
One’s bended knees
Ask for His Grace
‘Cause one day
One will realize
That one is no
Longer “A Zoroastrian”
Even after learning that
Our Sacred Bulls were decimated
As well some of our religious symbols
Still doesn’t seem to affect you
May be “A Parsi Peg or two”
Will awaken you
Wake up “O Learned ones”
Do not sit on your laurels
As well those who are
Denied from practicing
Zoroastrianism
Wake up & take
Up the cudgels
Break Free
Choicest Happiness
