“I am fine and of course I am lying
remember
I am Lebanese
or nod
ask how everyone I know is doing
don’t
you see
that far away country
my mother
bursts into tears
the front door
resilient
smoke
dust
the rubble has become
blanket and bed
warm like mine
the fire
is blazing
the flag
burnt flesh on a phone screen
the demolition
of war
what is the definition
fleeing their homes
they are
dying
they are not
crying out for help
lend a
hand
hold a
heart
for being arab
I am not brave”

“The first time someone suggested that I write about my adventures was when I had just arrived in Lebanon. He looked at me with sincere curiosity, puzzled too. We were seated in a large kitchen at a friend’s house, having lunch. It was a beautiful yellow brick house, on top of a hill, very bright, the garden in bloom, wonderful colors and my story of poverty and gloom in Kosovo couldn’t be a greater contrast. We drank lovely Lebanese white wine, ate warm flatbread with labneh, foul, sujuk, and plenty of other mezze dishes.”
