Project of a Hasty Poem

~This poem was written in Arabic by Abderrahim Sail and it's translated into English by M'hamed Kanour~
 
 
“Love, I don’t desire to speak about you!”
 
 
Once upon a time
 
I had strange rituals
 
Like visiting an unknown ailing
 
Like getting liquored and intending the police station
 
With my own, to spend the night there
 
 
My coat was a box of books
 
And my practical workshop was: Fiction
 
I was doing that
 
Decreed by poetry
 
I walked barefoot under rain
 
Bringing out my tongue
 
 My depression drunk by
 
The pure wine of the sky
 
 
I corrected many trees by my hands
 
Because Autumn is my brother
 
I asked him to be kind to the almond tree that I love
 
That I was intoxicated underneath
 
Pained because of the absence of love
 
When the almond tree blooms
 
Snow falls down from my eye
 
I remember the one who put her heart in my algae
 
Then I live tormented
 
 She quietly dies in the arms of another man
 
 
Oh dear love!
 
Stay there in the past
 
Silent and embalmed like mummy
 
Leave me alone
 
I don’t willing talking about you
 
I will watch your wonderful corpses.
