My international nature

We're are living in a time that the word "border security" is active in the news more than ever. UK brexit from Europe is border security. In U.S it has even gone far a head, border security translated into physical huge border wall, (border wall security). We all know and agree which we claimed to be the unique creation on the planet and beyond ever existed, but we fail to be example as we supposed instead our pride either our undiscovered ignorance pulling us back to learn from the other lower class creations. If I had the chance to, I would rather be a fish, unfortunately now, I can only wish. Water covers about 3/4 of the earth's surface. Oceans are the largest part of it. Luckily fishes can travel in the oceans freely from corner to the other directions where ever their business is taking them. Unfortunately people don't. Do you know that wherever part of the world we are living now, in the near future we will have one destination together with everyone? yes, no matter where you living on earth your destination is a little hole somewhere you will no longer recognize. Our revolutionary global mind is just limited on media. Globalization is much more than Facebook, Twitter or Yahoo. It a change of mind. Understanding the necessity of human being and recognizing how short our days are. If history could undo and the world would spin back ward this is what would happen anyone belongs anywhere. The next poem is just my hope our world would be one day border-less peaceful international harmony. 

 My international nature!

The private place in the bath tub taking shower

Fighting with the cold water

After survival washed external, stood before the mirror

On the other side was a dark skin color of my African nature.

I heard words whispered to my ears in Tigrinya

A language of my origin, in East Africa where I was born.

Traveled far to a new world, where I belong

Never born to speak the language or play super bowl

I’m just a new comer, a visitor, to the place of world's favor.

But living here requires a new language

I had to change my tongue into Latin

English become my language beef burger my food,

This is home that I made.

My origin is European begotten

Proud to be GBR, Norwegian, and Poland

German, I repent on behalf of my fathers’ action

What they have done to Jews human beings.

I’m Rome, Italian ancestor “Buona Sera” son of colonization

Once occupied half the world but lost our own.

I’m Asian “Kaif Halak” peace be with you.

I believe in love hijab is just my tradition.

Chinese, I’m the beginning of verbal communication,

Japanese, victim of the world war disasters

I see it every night in my dreams

The bombs, gun shots, air strikes all the blood shade!

Struggling to survive trauma and yet scars on my face. 

I wish that have never happened.

I’m the 21^st century

Suffer everywhere everyone is weary

Information is my life, technology my family

I-pod my brother, my sister is I-phony

“I can” my ability, computer does the work

I’m pretending know everything

Wireless relationship good bye reality. 

Beauty is in words!
