The Hope Poem by Ahmed Matar
The Hope
I telephoned the hope yesterday
I asked him: can you
extract for us odor
From onion & haddock?
He said : Sure !
I said : and can you
Ignite with water a fire?
He said : sure !
I said: is it possible
to distill form Colocynth the honey?
He said : sure
I said : and is it possible
to put earth
in Saturn's pocket ?
He said : yes… sure
every thing is possible
I said : then our Arabs
will feel ashamed someday
He said : not in a million years
will ever happen what you say
