Wadih Saadeh

1948 / لبنان

Glances

Leaving their eyes behind while walking,
they rely upon past glances.
Silence is lying over their bodies,
with soft winds of the dead
and the spirit of devastated places.
If clouds drift into their minds,
it rains in distant fields.
They walk.
When they are weary
they lay down their glances and sleep
