By Fadi Abu Deeb
After the bygone snowy February
No one saw our Ugaritic neighborhood.
The sun descended to the low white small quarter
And built for it a roof of flames
inlaid with crystal and the delicious dark shadows of the space.
The neighborhood is imprisoned and free,
As a kingdom of a travelling mist.
Between the snow and the flames
The white is mixed with apocalyptic white.
The vast welcoming darkness is blended with a miraculous light
And we are still calling out delightfully:
“Let the sleeping ones wake up.
It is snowing with the first rays of the sun!”
