niroda abboud Poems

I spy with my little eye
One world, one lie
I spy, with my little eye
A world about to die
...

And the band starts playing
The same old song again
The monks start praying
To the same God again
...

you called me crazy
I think you're right
my mind seems hazy
like the moonlight
...

young man, Take care
you live an Age
where the priest is a mage
turned God into a son
...

Give me the reason
And I will follow
Show me the dream
To which to wake
...

The full moon tonight
Sheds crazy shadows into my sight
Plays games with the dark and the light
Blows my mind into flight
...

Love me, Hate me
But dont you hurt me
Touch me, Sooth my pain
I'm contagiously insane
...

Can't even count to ten
I reach seven then start again
Which came first, the egg or the hen
I've reached seven, now Ill start again
...

I saw the first star of tonight
slowely step into her place
an early sleeper
her bed inviting and warm
...
