I don’t have a guidebook for love.
One day it’s a flower I wear on my jacket,
on another, it’s a dagger hidden in our bed,
on another, it’s a flame that sears.
Still, on another, it’s a sugar cube dissolving sweetly on my tongue.
Nizar Qabbani, tr. by Nayef al-Kalali, from Republic of Love: Selected Poems; “Give Me Love, Turn Me Green”
