Tawfiq Zayyad Translation: Here We Shall Remain

Here We Shall Remain

in Lydda, Ramla and Galilee ...
here we shall remain.

Like brick walls braced against your chests;
lodged in your throats
like shards of glass
or prickly cactus...

The Sleeper and the Supernaturalist

"The Sleeper and The Supernaturalist"


The Sleeper
shone as she walked 
through the Woods

shining alive 
like nothing
natural could

caught 
in the moonlight 
unaware

the innocent
red-caped roses stared
the trees whispered,

Once seen……. 
Story Rhymes dreamt and told, 
To the...

A Trip To the Candy Store At Stake

A seven 
But they did not know why 
Since they did not lie

At the time of this writing 
Venturing into the forest 
Just like...

Armed With Wine

Armed with wine 
The spirit willing, really for anything
Watch the Drama

Fire in my eye, dry throat, cracking lip

I am stinking of words, ammunition from hell

Violation and Hypocrisy

I still see it when I close my eyes,
hands stoking up and down my naked thighs,
I can’t shake the lingering memory
of the night that someone violated me.

Straight To Voicemail

You should offer more.
I'm frustrated. Disappointed. Angry.
You pursue your denial.
Instead, you should acknowledge me.
No matter what you believe.
No matter how long you wait.

I detest the taste of your bait.
I hear nothing.
Weak messages,...
