  • While she was thinking of leaving

    All the ice cubes melted in the bar's glasses.
    I wrote on my hand so I don't forget:
    "The city is a large waiting room..."

  • Passing Through

    In every visible wall there is an invisible door,

    pores unknown except by god

    and entrances for poetry, revelation and souls

  • Close your eyes awhile

    and imagine that all people have become poets

    *It may happen that a kilogram of Arab bread is sold for ten poems by Ibn al-Rumi

  • Hotels of the ultimate

    Roses that grew alone

    Behind the house of the aged

    The tiles of his eldest dreams
