Hair Poem by Rumi Ullidov

Hair



Balconies of Babylon - where, within a lucid dream,
A vivid memory was born anew.
Grammar structure obsolete.
Rules and obedience forgotten.
Save the shadow of a ginger head,
A ginger hair
In a ginger land...
Of Samson origin or of Helen of Troy
(Of disobedience) .
It smells not of ginger,
But of tulip and bread:
Baked with Egyptian wheat and Morocco seeds.
One with the wind in the balconies
Of Babylon within a lucid dream.
