Perfume of Persia

Poem

Close to my current Goddess

I call in the name of life

And pray, asking for mercy to my cigarettes smoke

Seeking the intercessions from Yanni

Probably

He will compose a piece of music for her

So that it might rain, with a possible frost

To convince her to stop praying

And sits comfortably on a bed of water

Wearing that yellow lingerie

Then I clean her glasses,

Spread that sexy perfume,

On the edge of her neck

  “That perfume reminded me of Persia,

Arrived tonight coincidentally,

On a special cargo delivery for her,

From the nearest point to hell,

Brought to me a few years back”  

There were no witnesses on my delicious crime, except myself!

& I

I am still waiting,

For the rain to come,

Without wind,

Non-tropical,

So, I could sip a teardrop -maybe from happiness-

Or to drink all alcohol (alone),

To try not to write direct sentences,

Or maybe a holy book!  

The version of myself, sitting right in front of me; hoping that the violin will remove the church strings,

And scream out loud a special tune of Agnosticism

So, I would dance naked!

Then the foolish people would think I am worshiping!  

Whoever in the same position as mine,

Of those who were not infected by the alleged divine justice,

And writing vacillating sentences,

Not indifferent to this amount of religiosity; And superstitions

They will go the next morning to their work

Unsatisfied with their sexual relationships

I know what my colleagues will say

With their wooden faces

I know how long it will take, while I am trying hard not to talk

And I know that having my breakfast at this canteen will irritate me, the whole day

Just to see them eating savagely,

With provocative sounds

And I know very well; that this worn-out fast boat will create a silly path to the warm rain, in order to get my precious clothes, wet!

I know very well that I am a racist

And this world, will not ever own a place with no religious racism!!
