“They stripped you off your colours; those that you spent your childhood mixing them to draw birds and butterflies. They dipped your wings/dreams in mud. Then they piled them on your shoulders until you metamorphosed into a terrible octopus. Whenever you got rid of one arm, another one smothered you. Now, you no longer dream of flying.” — asma jelassi أسماء الجلاصي
They stripped you off your colours;
those that you spent your childhood mixing them
to draw birds and butterflies.
They dipped your wings/dreams in mud.
Then they piled them on your shoulders
until you metamorphosed into a terrible octopus.
Whenever you got rid of one arm, another one smothered you.
Now, you no longer dream of flying.
