armenians and turks

[arabaliozian]

armenians & turks,
turks & armenians
*******************************
after 600 years of cohabitation --
breathing the same air,
drinking the same water,
eating the same food,
speaking the same language,
driven by the same instinct to fornicate
(which, it has been said,
is "more powerful than god")
i doubt if there is a single
pure-blooded turk or armenian.
*
armenians bastardized turks
to the same degree that
turks bastardized armenians.
*
all children are brought up to be proud
of who they are,
but adults should know better
than to brag even when they have nothing --
repeat, nothing -- to brag about!
