    EPIGRAPH: One of these days I'll write a poem about the sky, a rose pinned on a bosom, my kitten, the vagabond violin, two palms soaring in happy heights, bread crumbling in a faraway room, a paper fan, a sultry black girl; about sponges, grapes, new clothes, the kites of Shoubra; about chess a bridge to the gallows. a jar of sleeping pills, a foal leaping over a rail as the iron pierces his belly, about a child in a nightshirt, a rainbow after Eid prayers, the splashes of the sea... I'll write one day, I'll write a poem, I'll write it, and if I don't, so what... Birds are not obliged to sing.
