see also my poem "Pakistan" 19.10 this year
The war of madness on sensibility
This cannot pass unnoticed.
It is too blatant in preposterous absurdity.
It is too over-obvious and can never be defended.
Mrs Bhutto wanted peace and sense to rule in Pakistan
and therefore was assassinated by a suicide bomber.
Can it get more sick –
the state of fundamentalists and terrorists,
the fanatism of psychopathic paranoia
waging holy war against a woman
just because she was a woman of some influence,
a blind attack on all the values of civilization,
justice, reason, sense, constructivism and education
only to enforce dictatorship intolerance
and backward brainwash unto death at any cost.
And this was not the first time.
The same brute force was launched in Burma
against peaceful demonstrants
who only asked for what was reasonable
also led by one courageous and heroic woman
who has been imprisoned for some sixteen years.
In China this war of insanity against good sense,
against all human rights, against suppressed Tibetans
and against the perils of philosophy and Buddhist wisdom
has been going on for sixty years
and still not tires in its efforts to exterminate
the freedom of the human mind and thought and conscience
and the life and culture and the history of the Tibetan nation.
They will never tire, all those mad dogs of barbarity
in their efforts to annihilate all sense
and beauty that excels their own,
and they will never learn, the miserable bastards,
that they never will be able to succeed.
