Atef Ayadi

EiIeen

Is
my north and south pole,
my ice-cups,
my oceanic conveyors,
my shields,
my limestone,
my deepest mines,
my gold, diamond, silver, and minerals,
the rivers mixed with my veins,
the water map,
the rain,
the wind,
The fog of the fall and the spring,
my moon,
my sun,
my planet,
my galaxy,
my universe,
my child and mother,
my rebellion poem,
my fiction and rhetoric,
my soul and essence,
my sight and rebirth,
my peace and patience,
my air, my green land, and the snowy mountains,
my desert and ocean's waves
my fall and my desire
my water of life,
my guardian,
my feeder,

And my unbreakable breath.


Imagine,
None of these exist!
