Chimera Posted April 26, 2012 Quick feet, that's what they used to call me, do they still? I wonder! Fifty days I have been denied to enter the Kingdom of Nutrition, how many more to come? I wonder! Can a mind live without its body, can a fish live without water? I wonder! What happened to father and baby Aisha, did they make it to Mogadishu? I wonder! Where is mommy, have the masked men released her yet? I wonder! Lady famine hugs me and my brother, the touch is cold, is she our mother now? I wonder! Flashlight, a picture is taken, what will the world think of me? I wonder! Do they know after doing chores for my father in the farm, I used to play football until the sun set? I wonder! Do they know my brother, lying in front of me, was the youngest muezzin in town, and has the voice of an angel? I wonder! School will begin soon, I miss my class-mates,...where did the masked men's trucks take them to? I wonder! I liked teacher Hassan, he was nice,....what did the masked men do to him in the open field? I wonder! I am tired, will I live to see another day? I wonder! Will I wake up tommorow and discover it was all just a bad dream? I.........I hope so!
