    Reader, I am here
    to assure you of the truth of this account.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    how you grew up believing anyway that romance
    was going to tuck you under its tender white wing
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    all the flies getting married to the corpses
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    and carry you off to someplace where you’d never notice
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    of bloated deer and raccoons by the roadside,
    or the man outside the corner store, engaged
    to every dusty bottle on the shelf, or the penned cows
    yearning for the hammer to the skull, for something certain;
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    in the boutique hotel, where in the bathroom
    there are little soaps and lotions, a sewing kit
  • Menna Abu Zahrahar citeratför 3 år sedan
    crashing through the shrubs and sending
    the lizards skittering, scattering the methodical ants

    well then
    I don’t want to know you anyway
    and I don’t give a fuck what you think
    of my poem
