listen to this spoken

what does eid mean to us here away from home?
away from the land that’s embedded in our bone?

what does sale no mean if we’ve become so scattered?
what does it mean if we’ve forgotten what really matters?

what is eid-didani if nothing feels like EERAAN?
why is it that happy life is to win that marathon?

what happened to the days of sofre-chini?
of ab-goosht o’ lavash o’ dore ham neshini?

what really matters is the love for our history
so what we keep stays in our family’s diary

ketabo baz kon o’ shoroo kon khandane farsi
ke roozi shaer shodi o’ be iranat begi mersi

My life is always at

’succession’:

(ecology) the gradual and orderly process of change in an ecosystem brought about by the progressive replacement of one community by another until a stable climax is established

doing is growth

incubation is understanding growth

incapable
i am of knowing you

your non-actions
tell me more about you
than your speech

you are testing me
for yourself
you believe in yourself
not in me

impressive but
you don’t want to know me
otherwise
your non-actions would be actions

you’ve made a gap

i keep jumping

it’s my own fault
if i fall

right?
