I believe in the power of poetry, which gives me reasons to look ahead and identify a glint of light.
On this earth there is that which deserves life.
The Palestinians are the only nation in the world that feels with certainty that today is better than what the days ahead will hold. Tomorrow always heralds a worse situation.
When I passed the age of 50, I learned how to control my emotions.
And I tell myself, a moon will rise from my darkness.
I am from there. I am from here. I am not there and I am not here. I have two names, which meet and part, and I have two languages. I forget which of them I dream in.
