Kashka from Baghdad
Lives in sin, they say,
With another man,
But no one knows who.
Dark lights at night.
No one thinks there`s life inside at all,
That there`s life inside at all.
Except for the ladies who clean the house,
Except for the men who put the garbage out.
At night
They`re seen
Laughing,
Dancing.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
Never go for walks.
Maybe it`s because
The moon`s not bright enough.
They`re blind in love, you see.
I watch their shadows,
Tall and slim,
In the window opposite.
I long to be with them.
What would I do if I were seen?
What would I do if they knew my feelings?
At night
They`re seen
Laughing,
Loving.
They know
The way
To be
Happy.
