The Circus of Justice:Ahmed Farooq Baidoon – Egypt

Jettisoned, the undersigned hereby,
Out of my fleet, no one say goodbye,
Untied from my prank bandwagon,
Serrated blade a waiting my ardent dragon,
Twice shy, once bitten,
Iceberg of my frailty, thereby I am smitten,
Countdown of doomsday triggered at the end,
Echoes of repentance vainly on the mend.
Jingle my new yearly bell on the go,
Unravel unseen brutal tricks, who might know,
Stranded humanity from righteousness—let alone a creed,
Trance and turmoil manifested stampede,
Inviolable nook impeded my ride,
Chastity and charity, by which rare mob abide,
Engendered in morality disdain, I can’t tell,
It was so, Justice—be it a phantom for that misled,
The Almighty divinity wills his might instead.
