Where Are Your Wings Offire?

By Malak Hassan Khan

Where are your wings of fire?,

Who will help us when our needs are dire?,

Are you really all that righteous?,

Do you really not make any mistakes?,

As all in my sights are lives at stakes,

Innocents captured by vicious tongues,

Have the air knocked out of their lungs,

Tell me o ye mighty why you neglect my questions?,

I wait for your answers at the horizon’s cressons,

Why would there be cruelty at the hands of the all knowing,

Or are those just my delusions,

The wars that are sowing?
