Music I: 22 Poem by Ali Ahmad Said Esber

Music I: 22

Rating: ★3.5


A star landed. She stalked
the streets leading to our house. She gave
her feet to a lover, and put
her hair in the hands of the date palm.

How wondrous!
No one on the road to our home
could follow her footsteps.

Translation: 2013, Khaled Mattawa
