Robab Moheb Poems

Alef
Lam
Mim.
in the Order of the Prophet
an invisible singer of my faith
...

Relation
a reverse beginning
on the way of lost voyagers of dreams.
...

Man, sinks in the mirror
woman,
grows up in the mirror.
...

Man,
a burnt stub
Woman,
her heart lost to
the powder compact.
...

When the grey curtain of the nights
from the verdant stature of panicles
...

Without shoes,
bare feet, his heart
man moved through life,
...

Nothing but merchants, they were,
for two rings of copper
the marvellous stature of panicles, early love of youths, only once
sold.
...

Once
they set the sails of their
imagination
the seas
looked surprised
as they stared into the tender breeze of storms.
...

In strains and curves of caress
free from error
the lover
mistakenly
desired his damsel.
...

The Gods of desire are
the strays in the alleys in the ruins of the soul,
the maniacs
of the excitement of the body.
...
