The Lantern Poem by Qassim Haddad

The Lantern



I put on a lamp for my footsteps and respond to the sweetness of coincidence.
when the oil runs dry
I call out, tempted to push the climax to destruction
In this way I depart every morning with the fragrance of warriors and the awakening of the insane
I do not promise happiness
And my footsteps have only mistakes for guidance.
