>>>PERSIAN [1]

Who put my son Youssef on fire?

He must have a heart darker than oil

 


My daughter’s doll is a skull in Darfur

 

A woman half buried in the dirt

Showered with dark ages stones

 

The arm of a child

Smashed under the truck of righteousness

For stealing a loaf of bread

 

I can’t stop these images

Spinning and spinning around my head

In the calmness of my lonely cave

 

I know if I step out of my circle

Thousands of debris penetrates into my flesh

 

But a voice in my head repeats

Take the step

Take the step

>>>PERSIAN [2]
