A Quandary of Gorgeous Song
The Prophet Muhammad’s arrived again with an entourage of saints Birds are flying in such a way the sky is streaked with gold …
TWO SHORT POEMS
1
White moth on the
black cloth of the Ka’ba —
Do you know where you are?
2
I had a vision
everyone circumambulating the Ka’ba
turned into tiny white birds
and flew away.
