Slowlyโ€ฆ and gently.
Here I am silent, for many days.
But now, as you ask me about my secret,
I tell you: for years it has been
the drums of war beating,
the drums of love beating.
Is it the downfall of consciousness,
or is death itself the downfall?
The moment of unveiling is here, as we stand naked.
In this moment,
and on this nightโ€”
a night from those many nights after the end of the world.

Theme: ู…ูˆุช ุงู„ุนู†ุฏู„ูŠุจ ุงู„ู†ุฑุฌุณูŠ
The Death of the Narcissistic Nightingale

Another afternoon of fighting. I have become a blind man. A man with a heart erased. This is the resurrection around us.
The alley is dark now in Beirut.

This is my poem.
The poem of my death.
Sung by the death of the narcissistic nightingale.
