The Earth Of Mercury – Rezauddin Stalin
When a falcon’s egg is filled with mercury and placed in the mouth
Man can fly.
Man is the rival of birds
There are two airplanes in his eyes
Missiles in the ear
A bag of gunpowder inside the mouth
People prefer fish skeleton
Feathers of blue throated birds
Eyes of dead tiger
And hanging of orphan Khudiram
The elites has antipathy to war
The consumption levels decrease
The poor love war
War helps them to forget hunger
In future water will be sold in pegs in the bars
Along with alcohol
The mountains will be melted
To make the omelets of eggs
The roast of trees will be tasty
It’s good to know those who live underground
Look for the new
Senoritas are waiting to marry Jesus
After his resurrection
That is the most beautiful city in the world
Where no one went before
None has seen the most beautiful lady ever
It’s the most beautiful poem that nobody read
Once man learns to fly he will never return to earth
