We Return to Each Other

Your hair exudes pride.
I take a wisp of your hair into my mouth
And see you in the dim light of the room
Galloping a horse along with me
Crossing the border from Iran into Turkey.

Why Do We Believe? II

Believing in God/religion continues to survive despite steady improvement in human intelligence and the incessant challenges to faith presented by science and its unaccommodating new discoveries.

بشنوید آن را که یک روباه کرد
ناروا بود آنچه او ناگاه کرد
 
رفت دنبال کنام شیرها
تا که نمامی کند از سیرها >>>

به قلبها باید رسید

دستهایمان را
ای کاش
می شد
در خشکی خشتهای خاک خورده فرو برد
و نفسهای سنگین انسان را شنید>>>

وظیفه دولت تمام والسلام
جنازه‌ها زیرِ آفتاب
در انتظارِ چادر و چاقچورِ آخرت
شاید نرسد دولت

A Fight for KGO

You deserters of San Francisco Bay Area,
San Jose and Oakland!
you less than Adam and Eve!
You big mouths, little chimps!
