Neda

For Neda Aghasoltan … and you are cut from the throat somewhere between horror and word someone laments from faraway times from somewhere between poetry and dreams I hold my hands up I turn blood- red holding your fingers on top I turn to green and in an earth which loves all the colours I lie down and sleep I'm here with you. 2009- London Note: Neda Agha Soltan, was shot to death on 20.06.2009 by security forces during a protest 20.06.2009, in Tehran
