Nikephoros_Phokas Posted July 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 SoilFrom page 21 A flower's motherA solider's fatherThe farmer's wifeThe start and end of life,The sword can't cut it,Man can't kill it,Millions pounding on your face,you take the painAnd present no fight,you give them flowers,Fruits, and drugs,They give you trash, oil, and shitWe would ratherPray to somethingWe can't see or touch,than you, our God.

nairi Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 You can read more samples here: http://www.serjicalstrike.net/default2/Read/read.html I've been trying to get my hands on this book offline for quite some time now, but have not succeeded. I just now wrote them an email asking if they could make it possible. Here's another Armenian singer/songwriter who writes poetry: ADOLESCENT ENDEARMENT By Razmig Arabian I feel like i was hit by a dozen bricks, my body goes one way as 1000 needles prick, A deadly rose stands silently, but its thorn slices violently.. You look like a flower too, but we dont know you are so powerful, sometimes I wish that we never met, but then my heart pumps up again... seductive leaves fall from the sky, as a tree, it starts to die, one by one they fall to the ground, landing softly without a sound... My feelings are something I never show, my little secrets you never know, I try to help by defending you, but then you tell me you hate me... I HATE YOU TOO... He published some more stuff on a poetry site (poetry.com/org or poems.com/org), I don't remember and seem unable to find it again now. It's pretty cool stuff. The guy's barely 17.

Nikephoros_Phokas Posted July 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 What do you mean you have been trying to get your hands on the book offline? My copy was purchased in a major chainstore, Barnes and Nobles. Amazon also has the book. It is not hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nairi Posted July 21, 2003 Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 What do you mean you have been trying to get your hands on the book offline? I live in Holland I tried ordering it with the ISBN in two (big/famous/appropriate) bookstores here but it didn't work. I even tried music stores. My dad tried to find it in LA last year but didn't succeed either. They told him they could order it but it would take too long (he was only there for 2 weeks). And I still haven't received a reply from Serjical Strike... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
