I Come From There by Mahmoud Darwish.

I come from there and

I have memories
Born as mortals are, I have a mother
And a house with many windows,
I have brothers, friends,
And a prison cell with a cold window.
Mine is the wave, snatched by sea-gulls,
I have my own view,
And an extra blade of grass.
Mine is the moon at the far edge of the words,
And the bounty of birds,
And the immortal olive tree.
I walked this land before the swords
Turned its living body into a laden table.
I come from there. I render the sky unto her mother
When the sky weeps for her mother.
And I weep to make myself known
To a returning cloud.
I learnt all the words worthy of the court of blood
So that I could break the rule.
I learnt all the words and broke them up
To make a single word: Homeland.....

    Are there problems with HT? I followed you but can't find your moments on the Following page unless going through the Following name list to check your moments. Did anyone feedback a similar situation to you recently?😲

    @Anna Yep. I've been told this and the app was very weird yesterday too. I hope the issues will be resolved soon.
