-
you are green.
your loss eats at you,
bites at your tongue and lips,
your cheeks are raw.
your bile is poisonous,
building in your chest,
choking you,
the hate you want to spit
leaks from your lips
you are green.
my dad says it's easy
to tell the thowrieen
from the tahalib.
he says,
"just look at them.
are they happy?"

I love this part; so true:
my dad says it's easy
to tell the thowrieen
from the tahalib.

Very powerful and descriptive words Nadia to show the spite and envy and hate that was implanted during the green regime.
