Excerpts from the works of Palestinian poet, Mahmoud Darwish

— Mahmoud Darwish

Mahmoud Darwish

[text id: you get nervous when someone holds your hand, you wonder if they can feel the rot.]

Mahmoud Darwish, “I Declare,” trans. Naseer Aruri and Edmund Ghareeb, in Enemy of the Sun: Poetry of Palestinian Resistance

- Mahmoud Darwish

"Here are your tortured poets. All from Mahmoud Darwish to Dr. Refat Alareer to Khaled Juma, these are tortured poets. Tortured by longing for a home they can never return to, tortured by the world they were born to for BEING BORN. Palestine, home to the tortured poets department." [@/folkoftheshelf on X.
