MY WORDS

Thieves and thieves silence along with my words

Hi my inner children speak without tilting your head do not walk occasionally while digging his own grave promise me and hold my fingers 

see I am here in an abandoned black city the burials sun corpse friends

NOTE FROM THE FAJR PAGES

The pieces of this poetry book were composed with the spirit of sharing fortune like the kawis. Or as taught by the teachers, carrying the intention of dulce et utile.
