Aqrus Cihatı by PoetOfSaiMiHunManKal
Men birinci Qırımtatarca ğazelimni yazdım. Aqrusiyedeki inqilâp içün bu kelişikli tuyula. Men bunı tat ve çöl şivelerinen yazdım. Bu şiirni İnglizce kategoriyasına saldım, çünki Qırımtatarca içün ayrı kategoriya yoq edi. I wrote my first gazal in Crimean Tatar. This is meant to support the revolution in Belarus. I put this in the English section because there's no section for QRT.K+, English, Drama & Spiritual, words: 291, 10/25

Political Conversations and an Amalgam of Color by IKnowItsOver
A few houses down a father was making dinner for his kids and wife. I thought, "How lucky those kids are, to spend time with their father like that" and then I realized you were right next to me. Listening to you go on... I allowed myself to think of the lucky children again. A letter, not much of a poem but it is somewhat political. T for swearing.

Peter, Peter by DarknessEmbodied
A darker continuation of the poem Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater. Reading the poem beforehand is suggested for understanding the plot and tone. Based on the old political view that women should not be allowed to file for divorce, and what happens after Peter's wife does. More summary inside. Rated T for abuse and murder, a little graphic, but no detailed descriptions.
