تنقيط Writing

تنقيط

يسجن نفسه في ورقة بيضاء

يفتح فيها وطنا لامرأة
تفتح فيه العالم
يضئ من عالم لا يدعيه
من عالم يشتهيه
يسكن فيه
 

Writing

He has trapped himself in a blank page.
He creates a home in it
for a woman
who unwraps there his own
inner world. He glows
in this world he aches for
and lives in,
yet which is not his.
