I AM HAZARA TAKING BlOOD BATH IN QUETTA

January 11, 2013 by wpfixit

I AM HAZARA TAKING BlOOD BATH IN QUETTA

A powerful poem from Asmat Hosaini, a Medicine Student from Quetta, Pakistan where a bomb killed 106 people and injured 163 yesterday in a snooker hall. Over 1300 Hazaras have been killed in targeted attacks and shootings in Pakistan.

This poem was written for Irfan Ali, a human rights and peace activist, who died giving first aid to victims of the 1st blast when the second bomb killed him last night.

I AM HAZARA TAKING BlOOD BATH IN QUETTA

A senseless killing took you away last night

Coward ass nigga shot you through a window so you didn’t have a fight

I am hurt that your life had to come to an end this way

Dying at the hand of someone else’s gun play

He didn’t think he just took your life away

Leaving you loved ones with unanswered questions today

I enjoyed the time you and I shared

I will hold those moments close to my heart

And although your life was cut short here on earth

I know your with you make where you’ll get a new start

For those of us who embraced who you were we’ll miss you dearly

As for the one who killed you may his soul burn severely

“I am Hazara carrying Mongol facial feature mostly living in Afghanistan. Hazaras have a unique place and dwelling in the history of cultures and ethnicities for they are only that held oriental and other mixed background as well as communion with the religion of Islam. It is unlike to find another such nationality with the same characteristics. Hazaras are identified by their specific characteristics; Asian like eyes, nose and may more Asian physical attributes. They are most oppressed and most mistreated ethnic in Afghanistan and Pakistan. And unfortunately this vicious saga of brutality barbarism continues everyday of twenty first century against Hazaras in Pakistan.”
