Why Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Why
Two neighbors who the natural friends,
unnaturally turned into enemies,
their enmity a leftover of a colonial power,
that is now stale like yesterday's bread.
Why?
Economy of the super powers,
rest on sale of arms,
for sale of arms there must be a fear of war,
for a fear of war there must be an issue.
Why?
The people of the two countries do not rise,
because one is an addict of sleeping pills of hatred,
and the second is a victim of ill effects of anti sleeping pills of fear.
In between sleeping pills and anti sleeping pills both are sandwiched.are
