Eva Petropolou’s review of the poem “Looking For You” by Yatti Sadeli

Looking for you..

Looking for you behind every unhappy moment

Looking

For  Why

In every world that just started

Looking for

Excuses

For every woman murder

Is our world

Only for riches and technocrats

Are They going to survive with their robots

That will sing songs to make their faces smile??

Looking for you

This excellent mind

And

Unique thought

Looking for you

In this empty world

With the empty minds

Is this world

Creating illusions

To keep the world silent and sleepy

While the beast are eating flesh

During the Holy night

Looking for you

In this big planet

Full of plastic

Just i wonder

Why the half of world

Want to destroy the other half??

Looking for you

In this madness

Genocide

Of children

And

Disappear of

Women

How the babies

Will come

If the man that plays

God

Destroy the feminine 

???

This poem touches my heart because you wrote it in a serious poetic style. The diction and phrases you use are not trite. You have done an excellent job opposing genocide. Yes, currently peace is just an illusion. But through this poem, you have tried to strengthen hope because otherwise there would be nothing left. Thank You. We hope that your written work will inspire change in the feelings of anyone who agrees with genocide in Palestine.
