No one will know about your problems if it is not covered by the media. and the media gives priority to where they think the world gives priority.


Somalis are in a state of chaos
They are fleeing from conflict
But are unable to cross the border
As governments have sealed it off

In the scorching sun they are melting
No one is coming to their rescue
Starvation is their only companion
They complain to hunger from hunger

They take up an issue with harmful diseases
By writing to the very germ that kill them
They ask the wind to give them shelter
Only to end up in the harsh jaws of the wind

With the screams of starving children
They are knocking sound-proof iron gates
Does the world know about their plight
Or the media hasn’t yet given them a priority?

The situation in Somalia is not an emergency. It is man-made, prolonged war that has no mission or vision. That is why the media cannot give us a priority. We need to think and say no to this suffering.
Thank you brother. Stay safe. Abdullahi

In the End: Apocalyptic Poetry by Debra Kraft

In the end they'll all be dancin'--all them ones that didn't die.... Dance with me in the shadows amidst the lightning and the thunder, and all that nu-cu-lar debris. See the big bang from the other side, and then open that cellar door. Go down into
