Dedicated to the people of Lebanon.
they flocked to Martyr's Square
bearing witness to their scars
thousands, thousands, thousands
hundreds of thousands
Nejmeh, Hamra, Tripoli,
Sidon, Tyre, Bekaa
Paris, London, Berlin,
Geneva, Prague, Istanbul
from Nabatieh to New York
"fuck the system"
"all of them means all of them"
anarchy?
or democracy?
smell of argilah and sweat
taste of khebez and salty tears
sounds of killon and dance parties
seeing flags and fists raised
feeling hopeful bodies shoulder to shoulder,
hand in hand.
a sense of sowra. a sense of revolution.
