The majority of my early childhood was spent in a big house filled with endless possibilities. At least, that’s what my preteen self thought at the time.
This is a garden, these are my petals; this is my armoring plant
i quite like the smell of cloves, even more when they're burning/ turning charcoal in front of my eyes
Sweat beads upon my brow, my shirt begins to cling/ The vile monster's tendrils reach out, adhesive
I've seen love/ Rolling down from a mother's eyes/ As she picks her lean child, bathed in innocent blood
go further than/ what the hills have seen/ through their ice pick scars
The mosque committee was quite displeased with Rashed, their young muezzin.
Dust patterns have gathered around my landline phone, huddling around the maroon. my fingerprints take some dust off of it, and they rejoice.
When there’s a lull in the air, I get the feeling that I’ve scraped the bottom of my fleshy insides.

Buckets of water I pour on my head; my vision gets blurry./ "The blurrier, the merrier", my mother said.
