The (sad) story about his life is very inspiring and is in a way consistent with the poems. His poems are very lovely, sincere and it makes me love him as a person because of his work. (+ It's always nice to fantasize about those poems being written for me haha.) And I think it's quite beautiful and inspiring how he writes about women, not just about their body etc. (Which is also truly beautiful, with much passion) But also the world and feelings seen from their eyes. Also it was not easy to write about women so freely in that time and place. It takes courage and a bit of poetic madness.

I love this kind of poetry for my own reasons, and writing them down feels cheap, so I'll just share a few of my favorites from Qabbani. Be assured, my lady, I did not come to curse you To hang you on the ropes of my anger, I did not come to review my old notebooks with you. I am a man Who doesn't keep his old notebooks of love Who never returns to his memories. I came to thank you For the flowers of sadness That you planted inside me. From you I learned To love the black flowers, To buy them, To distribute them In the corners of my room. I hate to love like other people.
I hate to write like other people. I wish my mouth were a church And my letters were bells. I wear you Like a tattoo on the arm of a Bedouin. I wander aimlessly with you On all the sidewalks of the world. I have had no passport or photograph Since I was three I dislike pictures.
Every day the color of my eyes changes Every day the expression of my mouth changes Every day the number of my teeth is different I do not like sitting On a photographer's chair I do not like posing for pictures. On earth all the children and the tortured Resemble each other Like the teeth on a comb, I soaked my old self In the water of my sadness, And drank it. I decided To roam the world On the bicycle of freedom In the same illegal way That wind travels. If I am asked for my address I give The address of all the sidewalks That I chose as my permanent residence. If I am asked for my papers, I show them your eyes. My love, I am allowed to pass Because they know That traveling in the cities of your eyes Is the right of every man. 3d Max 64 Bit Download Crack For Idm.
