So, I ask you; what is it that fires your engines every day? What is it that gets you up in the morning? What moves you? What is your passion? — at smelling the bouquet of life.
I would say that I love photography. It used to be that I loved taking family snapshots, to keep the memory alive, but, slowly it evolved into something much more than that. Then one day, it just didn't seem quite right without some words paired with it. I'm not sure where that came from perhaps to explain, or perhaps, they just needed to be let out. They may be thoughts or musings or even an occasional piece of pseudo-poetry.I'm not even sure that is a real word, but, let's step over that for a moment or three and just leave it be.
With my thoughts
Your heart is next to mine
Caressed by hands of love
My love
Lips to lips, a gentle kiss
Tracing the reality back to my heart
I roll over, and the moment takes its escape.

Then again, just rambling or thoughts may come tumbling out. Admittedly, I have them often.
But, only by the heart
As it should be
My love, my love
So the joy may touch your soul

i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
