Immature Politicians

Stars
failed to twinkle,
avariciously,
apocalyptic.

Like shards,
willing to lacerate
every rising hope.

    Nice format and philosophical theme..

    What did the Arab Spring bring the region, dear Samia? I fear not much good for a long, long time to come...

    Well done!
