Abol Froushan

Scream!

Between the poet and the star
Sat the moon
I sat naked on the balcony
in absent company
and felt the ground amiss

Between the candle and the window
sang the moon
I sat on the sofa hugging myself
to mitigate the disharmony
of a parting

The poet stood up and grabbed the moon
went to the fridge
and shut it in
I heard the buzz
turn to a scream

SCREAM!

SCREAM!

Scream!

Between the poet and the star

I sat naked on the balcony

and felt the ground amiss

Between the candle and the window
sang the moon
I sat on the sofa hugging myself
to mitigate the disharmony
of a parting

The poet stood up and grabbed the moon
went to the fridge
and shut it in
I heard the buzz
turn to a scream
