BEIRUT  

 

What is a woman the most

someone with a lilac shade of a body

away from the purple suns

a mistake of so many ways

a curve of an incomplete street

the last stone of a dead-end

what is a woman the most

 

as the suns were falling away from your sky

the flowers dried by love would be looking at some mountain

as if her shadow owes her some money

while picking the world enthusiastically

it is a lexicon of grief accumulated in her eyes

that fatigue cannot be over soon

the burden of listening doesn’t end

a question is always left as the last item to survive

 

what is a woman the most

right after she closes the door of her house
