Sorry for my rant on this merry merry night

I am a woman, hear me out
Why should I feel small
So men get to feel rather big
Why should I admire them,when
They clearly are doing something wrong
Why should I feel bad
When I know men are bsing
Why shuldn't I call them on it
Tired of being quiet or worse agreeing
When men write something outrageous,
in the name of truth afterall
As if they are god or a prophet
Men think that they know best,
and everyone else is stupid
Why can't some men be happy
just being amazing
No amazing is not grand enough
Some guys have to be god or prophet
Sorry for my rant
on this merry merry night
Guys, At least it may prevent you,
From feeling like Christ
on this merry merry night

Thanks Fesenjoon, it was a great concert

by Anahid Hojjati on

He sang this song titled "heif" that some months ago someone had posted on facebook and I liked. Farsheed writes all his ahang and sher. Nooshafarin, Omid and Faramarz Assef were all great and then I had to leave. I hope you have had a fantastic holiday season so far.

Dear Fesenjoon, thanks for Taghdeemi song

by Anahid Hojjati on

I like Sinatra so I am sure your song will be great. I came with some family to Iranian concert of Assef, Omid, etc. It will start in a while. Have happy holidays.

Anahid jaan, Merry Christmas day and a Happy New Year

by Mehrban on

BUT, about this blog, are you kidding?! ;-).    All the best to you and looking forward to your poems in the coming year.  

Faramarz's adaptation and Ms. Rusta's comment on Jesus being Iranian are funny  :-). 


divaneh

Loved both versions

by divaneh on

But Faramarz's poem talks to my soul whilst Anahid's is just imaginative rants ;-)


Anahid Hojjati

Wow, Faramarz, very funny poem

by Anahid Hojjati on

Dear Faramarz, thanks for your funny poem in response to my poem, loved your sense of humor as always. BTW dear IC friends, today I will be sightseeing in Vegas with my relatives so I apologize in advance if I cannot respond in a timely manner to some comments.

Thank you, Faramarz!


Faramarz

Happy Christmas Day Anahid

by Faramarz on

I am a man, hear me out
How could I feel tall
When women want to put me down
Why should I admire them, when
They always want my undivided attention
Why should I feel bad
When I know women are bossing me around
Why shouldn't I call them on it
Tired of listening or worse agreeing
When women don’t let me talk,
in the name of truth afterall
As if they are all babes or goddesses
Women think that they know it all,
and everyone else is stupid
Why can't some women be happy
by just the way we men are
No amazing is not grand enough
Some women have to be babes or goddesses
Sorry for my rant
on this glorious Christmas morning
Girls, at least it may prevent you,
From feeling like Mary
on this glorious Christmas morning

Dear friends, thanks for your comments

by Anahid Hojjati on

Dear MM, yolanda, Alborz, Johnny and Farah, thanks for reading my rant, commenting, posting video link and being funny and witty. I like what Johny wrote about peace and humanity. Farah, I am glad that these days rather than political discussion on IC, we exchange joke and poem. Maybe that is what Iran needs.


Farah Rusta

Well said Anahid jan

by Farah Rusta on

Did you know Jesus could well have been an Iranian?  After all who else other than an Iranian man would call his mother "the Virgin" and who other than an Iranian mom would think of her son as "God" :)

 

Happy Christmas dear Anahid.

Merry Christmas to you all whether you are christian or not!

by Jonny Dollar on

I am not a christian, but I have been celebrating it with my catholic wife, kids and relatives for many years. I don't have to believe in jesus to believe in spirit of christmas which is all about peace and humanity. Actually I don't even belive in the same god as moslems or christians do. I believe God is in your heart, not somehwere in the sky. peace on earth!

Yolanda,thanks for the video link!

"God is love!"
