Shaken




Out of nothing the day 

becomes night;

All lights, all kind turns off;

Only darkness covers the earth;

And only loud cries can be heard.


Suddenly, little sparks of 

dissipated lights appears 

everywhere, but very few.

Lights that are like the flames 

of a matchstick are far enough 

from each other.


There’s been an “Oh!” from 

all over the earth. 

Movements, loud and 

fast are heard. 

All moving towards those 

sparks of lights 

nearby really fast, like running.


Loud cries of stumbles 

in the dark;

Angry shouts of insults 

even more;

Desperate crying of fears 

from children,

Women and olds fills up the air.


To everyone’s surprise 

and amazement, 

Big long elongated objects 

of fires 

Have filled the air from 

east to west, 

And vice versa, as if fighting 

each other.


The darkness stand still, 

stuns and 

Paste itself in, like forever.

While the sparks of 

matches lights

Lowers down from its place.

Yet, their lights keep burning.


There is a sense of fears

and trembles in the dark, 

murmurs of prayers

from the places of matches 

are heard alone.

Loud cries of desperation 

rules the earth.


“Oh, lights! Come to me!”, 

many plead;

“Share your lights, bastards!”, 

are also heard;

“Father in heaven, forgive me!”, 

shouts others;

All different languages coming

from every corner of the earth.


Only, but only ones, 

from the matchsticks

Nothing can be heard. 

Just quietness.

And peace seems to be 

present in them.

No one can reach them, 

nor wind nor any blows 

can turn them off.


Not too long comes thunders. 

All flying objects of elongated flames 

having shapes of a nuclear missiles 

keep coming back and forth each other.

So heaven cries.


Thundered air spit  rays of flames

Like electricity hitting below. 

Then loud shouts of death 

can be sensed, 

not just from where the 

elongated flames fall.


The writer’s hand shake so hard, trembling that it can’t 

keep writing. 

The paper where his story is written 

has been erased by the tears from his eyes.


“Heaven forbid! God have mercy!”
