IN THE FOREST OF PROPHET
O!
Reason which abolished itself
How
ever cannot you see
What
to be feared of essentially?
Everything
is taking place under your very eyes
How
cannot you see reality!
Such
whatever, is from you, is not you
How
much you say they are not icon
Whatever
you worship are iconical jokes
Or
else cannot you stand solitude
At
be a spanner in the wheel of God
At
existence
Do
not you have courage?
You
are standing still behind reasons
Do
not you come to pass in no way?
Centuries
didn’t listen to Buddha
After
centuries
Even
if Zarathustra had heard him
And
united him with manifestation
Now,
again he is shouting truth out
21st
century!
Listen
and have a grasp of your ears
What
is saying, commanding in his forest
He
is saying ‘revolt’
Revolt
against all authority
Your
all authorities they are idolized
Is
the love that possessive
In
fact you have to know how you hate
Is
the hate that incarcerated you
You
have to quell your walls with love
Solely,
your remedy is
That
you have to revolt
You
must revolt that you be yourselves
Reach
from inopportuneness of time to Spirit
up
The
spirit can reach you up
If
you were be free
If
perchance you were free in the forest of Prophet
Your
volition is with him
Overall
Spirit is in your soul
On
what human is being human
The
revolt is your only purpose!

Note: I am owed to Orkuncan OKUMUŞ. Because of that he
checked my English translation of my poem after I had translated my poem (Kahin’in
Ormanı’nda) from Turkish to English.
