Jerusalem is a port city on the shore of eternity.

Even if a poet writes about sitting in a glass house drinking tea, it reflects politics.

It was not an adventure; it was my life.

From the place where we are right, flowers will not grow in the spring.

Love is like a reservoir of kindness and pleasure, like silos and pools during a siege.

I've often said that all poetry is political. This is because real poems deal with a human response to reality and politics is part of reality, history in the making. Even if a poet writes about sitting in a glass house drinking tea, it reflects politics.

Behind all this, some great happiness is hiding.
