Nigel-Wright Intra-galactic Relations #1

(K)ehkashan: The motif for today’s mushairah will be the literary gems Nichols and May.   

(P)apa Harry: Brilliant minds, Mike Nichols and Elaine May. Wow! There is an element of improvisation in the mushairah, you know?

(D)addy Anwar: Nichols and May were side-splittingly hilarious in every one of their routines and comedy is very much embraced in its own category in the mushairah. How many will be participating in this mazahiya mushairah?   

(K)ehkashan: Like mazak kiya? Why can’t we resolve the world’s troubles, particularly in the Middle East, with compassionate poetry slams?

(D)addy Anwar: Yes, but in a different Urdu format. Yes, but with a different Republican Party formation in the United States.   

(P)apa Harry: You cannot run a person to the point of exhaustion and compromise and a scab wound on the knee and insist he or she continue running just because you’re finally by their side.

(K)ehkashan: Papa! Forget about being forced to run with a scabbed knee! We’ve got the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890 in our history books and don’t think children are unable to read between the lines. Telling us to read To Kill a Mockingbird and then subjecting us to the ridiculousness of The Hunger Games presently with the equally nitwit Twilight trilogy of yesterday for our cinematic and extracurricular entertainment.

(P)apa Harry: Excellent points.

(D)addy Anwar: I’m in agreement too.

(K)ehkashan: Look at Michael Brown’s case and the riots that are sweeping the nation. Don’t you think children, my peers, are following the newscasts on television and irritated by how simple it is to visit the Fox News websites and articles but the tremendous difficulty by which to access any materials that have an unbiased and reasonably balanced approach? When’s Bill O’Reilly’s Killing Michael Brown going to be published and hitting the bestsellers list?   

(P)apa Harry: I’m listening, my love.

(K)ehkashan: Don’t you see, Daddy! The outgoing and incoming Congressional Republicans and their evenly treacherous Democratic counterparts have carefully strategized the riots. A lot of choreography was needed, considering there were originally only 400 people gathered gracefully in Ferguson, Missouri before the prearranged rioters were assembled.  

(P)apa Harry: Daddy is listening, too.

(K)ehkashan: Doesn’t the predictability of everything terrorize you? We knew the GOP was going to bail out for the ten days they are away from Washington, DC for the Thanksgiving Holidays. Obviously, David and Charles Koch are busily bustling about getting their scriptwriters to craft and draft the talking points that the Congressional Republicans will be yelping and to which the Congressional Democrats will be throwing their hands up in absolutely bogus helplessness.    

(D)addy Anwar: We knew the jury verdict in Ferguson, Missouri beforehand. We knew the GOP had retreated from Capitol Hill to their hometowns because the Republican Party was needing another round of prewritten scripts, talking points as you said.  

(K)ehkashan: The United States Elections were decided before the ballots were filled. Now the creative idea of the Republican Party and their helpless Democratic Minority in the United States Congress is to insist that the American people voted for the dumb dimwits when in fact we the people had thousands of our voter registration forms shredded whilst the Supreme Court males under Justice John Roberts refused to repeal the voter suppression tactics and present day poll tax substitutions in states like our Texas. 

(D)addy Anwar: The public library portal won’t allow the download of Wendy Davis’s memoir, even three weeks after the United States Midterm Elections. Civil unrest is the solution of empowered incompetents. The decline and fall of an empire, Roman or American, is plausible when the empowered incompetents, like the Republicans and their coconspirator Democrats, underestimate the integrity of the disenfranchised and innocent.  

(K)ehkashan: The 2016 Election Results are already perfectly known! The GOP has perfected its cheating techniques. So what if they decided to take ten days of vacation in order to study and memorize the nonsense that they will be spewing forth once they return and shutdown government. Preplanned riots and prescribed dialogue from the GOP’s billionaire donors.    

(P)apa Harry: You’re upset and we’re here for you, my love.

(K)ehkashan: I am of a very happy disposition, generally. Now I am miserable! You think we’re children! No! We are the brilliant future of this country! We are hurting too! We know about the four agonizing hours Michael Brown’s mother was unable to hold him as he died in the blazing light of day. And now you’ve got Jennifer Lawrence practicing archery in an age of advanced weaponry and fighter jets in that film franchise of hers! Why cannot humanity be the way of the bow without its piercing arrows? Why do bows have to be contracted back towards the arrow rest? Moving and curving ahead instead in a rainbow would be how I would envision my future!  

(D)addy Anwar: The lower and upper draw weight adjustment bolts of the bow give it its curvature actually. However, the rainbow future you’re envisioning reminds me of your Uncle Inder Dhanush!

(P)apa Harry: Anwar! The two of you certainly are in a poetry slam suddenly! I need to fix dinner! But I will say, poetry would be the route to peace and we need a Maya Angelou in Ferguson, Missouri right now.

(K)ehkashan: We need Uncle Inder Dhanush, or Saul Williams!
