 ALL PLACES

Zuhair Al- Juboori

Translated by Hamid Alshammari

Its water is brown, because its blue color was stolen at a drunken night

But he laughs, and I hear on television: today, tomorrow , O.. !

The Sultan's treasures were in his hand

And his small house did not accommodate

the size of his losses
