Europe comes
from Middleast

Short poem by Federico Berti

Dedicated to Women Unit Defense (YPJ)
and Resistence in Rojavah

No longer you will fight the giant bull
when Juda’s flower garland shall adorn
of  husband Jupiter the noble horn
stuck in the petty slayer’s hanging skull.

Don’t cry the never ending youth you waste
defending freedom to reclaim the right
on wings of Peacock when you joined the flight
a valiant bride of brave and shiny caste.

You struggled over criminal decease
and raise the stars of red in clenched fist
as yellow flag upon that rocking lease

Your deeds will ring in legendary list
the fallen dead asleep in wadding ease
remember Europe comes from Middleast
