dream of freedom (Remove filter)
2020 Spring
Poetry, written by Ali Taha Alnobani
A metallic alien object with plastic gaze
Without emotions, and no feelings
It holds tapered forceps and a magnifying glass
It runs on the empty street
Like a spooky ghost
Like an absurd robot
His eyes are round, red
His nose is crunchy squared
And his voice is like air when it comes from the hole of a sick object

Human misery
I’m an abject, because the helmsman of our homeland says so,

nothing planned as such
Tad touch of spontaneity
& escapade a sole crutch
Legs straddling untamed
not broken in yet mount
Uncertain of the outcome
and what it’ll tantamount
Timidity all but vanished
