IT IS HARD TO TAKE YOUR HAND
Published -isbn-1-58235-564-9 (USA)
A
rug in afghanistan
whispers the tale of an old man
maimed by a land mine
weaving the love fibers
into a pattern exquiste of a soulful warmth
pearling
from his atrophied fingers
A
sculpture in greece
breathes in the marble of the intellect
a classical
sigh
Eros has been mutilated so often
by the sword of the impossible love
A
plougher on an iraki field,
recites the truth of his prayers
heals the
land with his sweat
as a new born dies once more
never far away from his
tears
It
is hard to shake your hand
it is hard to receive a hug
my heart has been
broken so often
by your unconditional love..
