Bloody Makeup

Elham Hamedi

Only the blood of the street can poured on my face
By prescribing an unfair prescription, a deep injection of a painful beauty
Only blood makeup can show anger
Only the green blood of a tree can scream in my wounded veins
Only my blood can weave a flag and raise it above all the buried trees
This blood stain will become a smile of a kiss
On the slapped cheeks of the people
This blood stain will fill all the wounds with the smell of roses
‎‏This blood stain will be interpreted beyond a holy book
Believe it!
Believe it!

Kiss of the Fish

Elham Hamedi

Can publish an unknown taste of water
In my heart
With an incredible circulation
Kiss of the fish yet
Is not suffocated
At the back of the plastic
The soil still has the flavor of body
The soil can still
Analyze my body in a green creation
I hug the severed heads of the trees
And I pass my breath in the mouths of birds
A piece of sky
With the breath capacity of a thousand birds
It is enough for reflecting the smile of the sea
A piece of sky
A ceiling with a singing capacity of a thousand canaries
Enough for a conversation
