Wadih Sa’adeh

His Face

He sketched his own face and saw
that it looked like someone else.
He added lines and shading,
zigzags,
open squares,
roads . . .
He ripped it to pieces
and disappeared.

وجهه


رسمَ وجهَهُ ورآه
يشبهُ وجهًا آخرَ
أضافَ خطوطًا وملامحَ
أضافَ تعرُّجاتٍ
ساحاتٍ
طُرُقاتٍ
... مزَّقَ الورقةَ
واختفى
