Mother Shot By Marziya Shakir 3 Year Old, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

outside a shia mosque she sits
publicly showcasing her pain
appealing to a mother whose
son was named hussain
mother the source of
maternal rain as it falls
as tears soaking the heart
of a parched painful domain
ashura karbala two
pillars that steadfastly
remain sham sham sham
he cries out through
the bondage of yazidi chains
1400 years he is still alive
truth justice equality humanity
can never be slain
