  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    fist smite ’cause our might is long
    King Kong
    top of the tower
    late is the hour
    bang the goddamn gong
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    fight night ’cause our rights are gone
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    bare pawns
    unable to see what’s going on
    swan song
    to the days that seem long gone
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    For underneath my fabled family tree
    are buried roots strong and out of sight.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    It seems when there is strife,
    we concentrate on what makes us different
    rather than what makes us whole.
    What divides us
    rather than what’s inside us.
    We reduce ourselves to old rhetoric,
    blame their blood for their inability to love
    or their heritage, their religion, their race, or their parentage. Blame what they’re made of
    rather than face the unfortunate truth
    that all your love
    and all their effort
    just wasn’t enough.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted4 years ago
    My father would hate the stereotypical Brazilian carefree spirit, my mother would hate the supposed rigidity of Indian culture.
