Poems

by Al-Saddiq Al-Raddi

Some of them meet you
in the dark corners of the world
Some remain hidden

Some harbor revenge
or plot their escape
as they gallop down the valley of the wind
 
Some linger at the foot of a mountain
exposed to the elements
 
Some owned your heart
Some slaughtered it
Some stripped you naked

Some: me and you
