FAKE FRIENDS

I have no time for you,
busy as always, I don’t lie,
we will catch up on everything
when I visit you in Dubai.

There is plenty to talk about,
all we missed back and forth,
I am sure, without doubt,
we will have a week of warmth!

I think always about you
but I find no time to say hi,
I will make up for everything
you just prepare the supply.

I don’t need a special treatment,
a tea in Burj Al Arab will be enough,
but it will be your own achievement
if you buy me some luxury stuff.

Take me to all posh places
where I will take selfies and post,
my followers will give me praises,
no worry, I will never mention a host.

And after I leave you for good,
you will be free with no obligations,
I will pay you few hundred dirhams
we had a bussines after all, not a relation.

GREED

More! I want more!
Give me! Increase!
I will take it by force.
Add to it! Exceed!
Enlarge my source!

Give what you have!
I don’t mind at all.
Lottery? Bribery?
Bring it in! Fraud?
Baby, I want it all!

Shrink that product!
Steal if you have to.
Lie! Prank and go!
Corruption? Deception?
Cheat on them bro!

Make no Scandal!
Take most and thrive.
Leave crumbs, thou!
I can take more
after they survive!

UNION DAY 53

Seventeen years ago to Jumeirah I came,
now celebrating my eighteenth Union Day.
Exactly across the street of my first home,
It is the birthplace of the UAE Union.

Near the big flag - it was easy to explain,
I rode a bike on the road before there was a lane.
Singing and riding ‘without hands’ was my way,
To Jumeirah Beach and back all the day.

I learnt to drive a car in a back street,
there was no police in the midst of the heat.
With the car came a national songs CD,
I tortured neighbours with sound and speed.

The Grand mosque was near enough to me,
praying fajr there was not a big deal.
And near was a beautiful masjid but small,
Right next to is a posh private Qur’an school.

We had to leave dearest Jumeirah for good,
as my children needed to start their school.
Cheap and cheaper were our only choices,
Discounts then were not fifty three percentages.

If I do live to two thousand seventy one,
and avail one hundred percentage discount fun,
a villa in Jumeirah would be a hit,
but a grave with a view will be more fit.

Happy Union Day to you all my dear friends,
I wish that our happiness and health never ends,
and more of good I pray for us from God,
as well as the protection from all evil in the world!
