Kamal Awwaad Poems

When you kneel
Kneel on both knees.
When you bow
Bow low from the waist
...

I rest in peace
My life is so peacefully passing,
Time slipping through my fingers like soft sand...
My palms have a grasp of air…
...

With your ass in the air and your head on the ground
They punched your face and spit on it
Your pride has collapse
And there is no fix for that so you laugh
...
