Rectify and edify a new central intelligence
Based upon dissemination of knowledge and evidence
Imagining Farsi as a prevalence
Of refugee slaves designed to change precedence
My war torn adjustments will be the testaments
That the line between my soul and my parents’ sacrifice isn’t for sale
I remember my father died protesting amidst my mother’s hijab unveiled
The truth is explained when I emerge from freedom that I can believe
Activism ain’t shit but a heart relieved
Detailed fame of my survivor’s guilt
Traded for education on the house soul survivor’s built
Peace is my motto when I follow the analogy
Down from Mount Damavand’s drama to echo invisible reality –through the valley
