Sitting on the rock my mind was bit of tranquilA
Thy heart is strained out at the pin point of thy quillB
It is sharper and inky like the markC
Of quill use in Ancient RomeD
To reckon what thou hath seenE
-
The day is summer like the temperature in the innF
The Earth is hot and wintryG
Big tree cannot contain the weight of fleaG
Leaves were scared of warH
Darkness of thy city split moon into tattered stoneI
-
Who can flash into hostel of lionJ
In the sake of favor and good heartK
My heart is as tiny like eyelid of my pen to reckonJ
And also wider like thy firmamentK
Created on thy first day of creationJ
-
To witness what thy climate had cause with its cambioD
Blind it is but will it surely reap what it did sowL
Thy heart also witness bug and teeth engage in geopolitical conquestK
Earth is afraid of tumor caused by inhabitantK
Virus and war forth cut into thy planet like a newly wedded coupleA
-
Western and Non Western black and white shut their doorH
Not for evil to come nearM
Shutting door against fiend friend may pass byN
Door of every home is paralyzedK
They refuse every stranger through their borderO
-
Let thy outer be out and let thy inner be inF
Says the doors of every homeD
Nobody show concern to thy neighborO
Nay nay all they sayP
Nay nay speaks thy EarthQ
-
Who shall I reckon these things toK
Father nay Mother nayP
Brothers and sisters nay nay nayP
Nay is the song of allR
What torture lurks within my single thoughtK
-
To remember the unceasingly unsoughtK
However welcome still my weary heartK
Laslas the light of hope sparkC
Comforter appears whether in dream thought or prophesyP
Nobody can say of thisP
-
What shall it be the vaccine to this agonyG
Love and unity shall thou be thy healer to the WorldK
Says my heart with screaming that echoS
Echo Echo Echo scream alwaysP
One trembling occurrence of joy flash inF

Poet's note: The poem "Island of Tumor" is the analysis that charactering on two main current problems facing United Nations and World at all which are "Geopolitical Aggression" and the spread of a pandemic virus "Covid-19". The poem is written in a form of reckoning what the tragedy has been and the core characteristics type of elegy that mourns the tragedy of societies. It’s very sentimental in approach. Also the poem disclosed the identity of the causes of these two major tribulations which is perhaps human made problem but later grew wings which inventor can never curb anymore. The poem suggested what the solution might be, which is "Love and Unity." i.e. if all nations could unite to fight this battle against the virus and aggression without discrimination or pecunious gain this World will be a better place for everyone. Consequently, the poem is presented with a lot of poetic devices such as Symbolism, Pun, Alliteration, Allusion, Oxymoron, Synecdoche, Metaphor, Simile, Personification, Apostrophe and Imagery, et cetera. In line 16 the word "cambio" is an Italian word means Change. And line 38 "Laslas" is a typical form of pun means Last Last, at last precisely.
