42/M/Iraq Poetry was invented in Mesopotamia
You long for affection The soft voice Admiring your nothings Thinking you are special A master of attraction Leaving no choice A virtual hugging Alluring, lethal You cut The victim gone... Suffer!

HEART SLITTER
Where are you? Let me find you Leave me a sign A handkerchief on thorny roses A candle on your window A note on my porch A scarf with your scent A clue with a friend A carving on some wood Open up Say something that discloses The tears on your pillow The reason you torch The letters of contempt You chose not to send Although you could I don’t get it What can be the causes For burning me with sorrow For making my heart scorch For making it attempt To willfully upend This beautiful cruel love? I need a signal..

WHERE ARE YOU?
I am gone But here My memory Still lingers Like the hint of old perfume And the noice of afternoon I am here In your moves In the passion of your words Like the waves of calm sea And the wind behind the dune I am here In your deeds In the soft beats of your heart And the giggles of a child All the muses of the moon I am here Still with you

ETERNAL MEMORIES
As I string words together From existing thoughts Aiming at shaping souls That will make the future I ask… Will there be more questions Will there be more wonder Will there be more action Or just more plunder Will there be more thinking Will there be more linking Will there be more sinking In the depth of life Will there be more focus Will there be more locus Or just more shrinking In the width of sight Will there be less shirking Will there be less cringing Or just more complaining About the strive

CONCERNS OF A WRITER
This side Oppresses in one The center of the universe That side Oppresses through the many The chosen ones Injustice happens in many ways At least let us choose

OPPRESSIVE FLAVORS
The saboteurs Are not only those Who tell lies But us Who help them Defeat us By closing the window And blaming the sun For not shining in That…      is a bigger sin! A wise man once said Strive for knowledge, not money Because knowledge guards you While you guard your money

THAT SAINT
As days sneak away       Like small thieves    Taking pieces of my soul I wonder…                 Where poems        The guardians of time? Defenders of hopes?        Or…    Were they disordered seams            Holding together a life         Of secret sorrow             Disintegrating Where they artistic lies Shallow     Hollow           Perfected to taste mellow                To hide the bitterness                           The missing shadow              Of my shrinking soul?     What where they?                    Impostor dreams?

IMPOSTOR DREAMS
Where am l? What happened here? Are we still free? Do we write poetry? Are hearts still broken? Have we resolved confusion? Are friends still apart? Is hope an illusion? Are memories pestering? Is loneliness still bitter? Are souls escaping? Do visions still jitter? What happened here? Do we still write poetry?

WHERE AM I?
I was not here You never saw me We never spoke You never told me in spring That you don’t I am alone This never happened I never did this I can’t give What I don’t own I never will be there Maybe you will But I shall not And I don’t care
