A Request
Over here
The time stops
In the wide corner from the cosmos,
The time stops
In domains that infinite
From doorsteps of shooting stars,
The time stops
Everywhere,
The time stops.
Then
The demonstrations follow in succession
From all sides
From all people
those who were born and died,
Those who were born
and are still alive,
And those who will be born,
Carrying candles
That spurt vermillion blood,
And the signs they tore
From the blue clearness of the Iraqi sky
Written on
"God"
Hasn't Iraq's ground had enough blood poured on?

The Sound of Poetry
NOTE FROM HOWARD ELY
Dear Said,
Every so often, as our
Editors review the poems
that have been presented
our Editor's Choice Award, they personally
select a few poems that
they believe would have
a wonderfully expressive
quality if read by a
professional reader.
Your Editor has
suggested that you
become one of 33 poets
whose artistry will be
recorded professionally
as a special part of a
new CD poetry collection
- The Sound ofPoetrv.
I'm writing to get your
permission to include
your poem
"Dream"
in this highly acclaimed
and internationally
distributed three-album
collection, scheduled to
be released four weeks
after we receive all
permissions.
The Sound of Poetry,
released as a 33-track,
three-album CD set (one
track for each poet),
features an inspiring
introduction as a
prelude to the selected
artistry, as well as a
brief commentary about
each featured poem and
poet. Captivating
Baroque music forms the
background to the spoken
words.
Said, your artistry will
not be recorded without
your permission. If you
agree to have your poem
included in The Sound of
Poet rv, simply make any
corrections needed,
initial the box next to
your poem below, and
return this entire
letter to us as soon as
you can. And make sure
to include pronunciation
notes for unique names
or other words used in
your poem.
And Said. . . If you
wish to obtain a copy of
this
3 CD set
(the entire 3 album
collection costs just
$49.00, plus $8.00
shipping and handling),
please note, you won't
find this item on the
enclosed order form used
for books and plaques
(because so few poets
.are chosen for it). So
if you want a set, just
send a note, or use the
back of the book/plaque
order form. Please
remember to enclose
payment, or specify your
credit card number and
expiration. And be
assured, as with all our
products, this album set
comes with an
unconditional money-back
guarantee.
Dream
The time levitate
Day by day
Month by month
Year by year
When the boy mount to his old age His white
beard fell down
And he hung his old age's smoke Behind the
mirror.
