Poetry: The difficulties of life

by Mohamed Tawfik Al-Mansouri

Created on: April 06, 2009

Ottawa is suffering from a mosaic fog

The National Capital Commission cares about the federal capital of Canada by the yearly Bank Street dig and drag,

opening restaurants with a flag,

Putting tables, signs and Gothic, that make our necks sag,

to look like a human, who was hung,

and organize meetings to hug,

yet neither inspector looking after them nor watchdog,

Restaurants are full of cockroach and bug,

lead by the system of Feng Shui and zag.

The city bans restaurants and bars of smoking and police controls gang,

except Arabic and Muslims' coffees and Restaurants, which are full of drug and smog.

Where is the equal law and the One-God?

Ottawa Housing is full of corruption, drug and bug.

The Department of Fair in dilemma and their effort result in lag,

Lebanese Canadian celebrate Summer and Winter by dance and jag,

despite killing their relatives in the holy land Palestine by a mosaic of gang,

the murder does not respect neither the judge nor the God,

the killer does not listen to the gong.

Multiculturalism becomes gap and leads by the hub of gab, and we are not the people of lug.

Jewish Canadians mourn only Jewish martyrs of the Second World War and accuse free thinkers of anti-Semitism rag.

Warn: German people are not only Nazi people but also the producers of BMW, Mercedes Benz, and the possessor of German shepherd dog,

the most intelligent and beautiful animal, not the pug.

Is the Semitism your tag?,

why with the others you are in tug and drug?

if you have trials go only to the judge,

Please, do not use the rug,

anti-Semitism is a clue to dug.

Irish Canadian women suffering from cold relations due to the Canadian Irish hobby calls jug and mug.

Immigration offers newcomers only a cag,

and the educated people are in cog.

Writers, poems are in cage.

Words are swollen to the crag.

Why is our city dying and in sag and rag.

If I have a nag, I will give it to the Mayor of the City to award and honor him of his lag.

His Excellency responds, I am a conservative of accountability, transparency and unhappiness day of fingerprints; I was promised by the Tory that my sins will be a wag,

He adds without sorrow or mercy that the Ottawa International Writers Festival should celebrate their traditional Festival in the Church of God,

and Neil Wilson is an Irish, liberal, Catholic and green like a frog.

It is not only the combination of elections but also the mosaic of fog,

we are Canadian and we should hug.
