Best Myanmar Poems

The sky is red by the blood being shed
The conscience of civilized world asleep
Where in the world is humanity being lead
Here is a corpse there is a throat cut deep

Vultures are feasting, dogs devouring
Devils dancing, angels clamoring
Monsters feasting, demons dancing
Guns tottering, weapons wielding

Is Muslim blood...

Myanmar 

The invaluable star in Asia,
Twinkles throughout the world;
A peaceful land of pleasure,
Is ranked as the celestial abode.

A union of sacrificial people,
From seven states and divisions;
Won't let their star go feeble,
Throughout all fearful situations.

Till the earth & the sky go on,
The flag of Myanmar will...

Monks become monsters. 
2017 is also a bloody year.

Where is Suu Kyi? 
Did she lose her voice

beneath the military boots? 
Paralyzed arms and legs.

Rape is a genocidal ritual.
Bloated corpses in the canal 

were women in the morning.
Intensity of pain and color of blood,

the same here...

aung san suu kyi  MYANMAR Rohingya
Sad when human life become intolerable,
inhumane,
nauseating,
heartbreaking, 
kids deliberately taken from their parents,
left to fend for their sustenance,
begging and pleading,
countless in numbers to be individualized.

A boy's little fingers stretched out for compassion,
but find none.
Never in a million years would his...

My heart, torn and shattered,
Yells at tyrants, a dire plea,
Yet, the torture remains unbothered,
No one hears my desperate plea.

Fiery anger burns within my soul,
Against murderers of democracy,
Arrogance and firepower take control,
Myanmar faces grave atrocity.

Those who raise their voice, beware,
For they may lie dead on the...

How you identify, 
Will always override, 
All rational thinking,
Causing a divide. 
Read between the lines 
As the countries multiply. 
Clever with their words 
So they call it “colonize”.  

Want to know a true coward?
Watch how he handles power.   
Aimed to devour. 
Leaving...

This must be Hell

Myanmar a place far away 
Where the men in charge
Executed the ex-Pm and 
Several other ex-men
I read this and found it disturbing. 
How easy it is to sign a death warrant, 
Dispose of the rubbish, 
Destroy families with the stroke of pen....

if I lie, will you believe me?
what if I don't, will you believe me?
what must I do for you to believe me?
what must I say for you to believe me?

what do you believe?
what you see or what you don't
what you hear or what you don't
what...
