“Write down! I am an Arab You have stolen the orchards of my ancestors And the land which I cultivated Along with my children And you left nothing for us Except for these rocks … So will the State take them As it has been said?!” – Identity card, Mahmoud Darwish

The Butterfly

Pavel Friedmann

The last, the very last, So richly, brightly, dazzlingly yellow. Perhaps if the sun’s tears would sing against a white stone…

Such, such a yellow Is carried lightly ‘way up high. It went away I’m sure because it wished to kiss the world goodbye.

For seven weeks I’ve lived in here, Penned up inside this ghetto But I have found my people here. The dandelions call to me And the white chestnut candles in the court. Only I never saw another butterfly.

That butterfly was the last one. Butterflies don’t live in here, In the ghetto.

The poem was written at Theresienstadt concentration camp on 4 June 1942. On September 29, 1944 he was deported to Auschwitz where he died. Pavel Friedmann was born January 7 1921, in Prague, and deported to Terezín* on April 26, 1942.

No friends here now cross the street

Sienna child but mind as dark as night

Struggling to elude discrimination from distant shades and those alike

Befuddled at the thought of a friendship and companionship to follow

Because in the end both parties very much capable of turning a bright and full soul dark and hollow

To blindly spread love or forever bear hatred that is my dilemma

Pondering on cumbersome thoughts is the kid skin same as sienna

“People disappeared, reappeared, made plans to go somewhere, and then lost each other, searched for each other, found each other a few feet away.”

I can't decide what color wings to wear to Paris Fashion Week.

I wanna fuck I wanna fly I want this smile to be a permanent fixture I wanna be the the thing you think about in bed 'cause baby streetlights blow out when I walk by

I want plastic surgery I want rhinoplasty I want filler I want me I want you I want to grow wings just for you to chain me by the ankle to the basement floor and right before you leave right before you close that fucking door

I'll thank you for the body glitter on the concrete because it's something to look at and I'm

a trashy whore

Check out the new poetry I penned which touched on several topics on addictions, wokeness and life.

"I CRACK THE DOOR & LET IT CREAK.

I TELL HIM IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP. I TELL HIM I COULD'VE LOVED HIM.

I TELL HIM THAT I'VE TOLD

WHAT HE'S DONE.

MAKE UP FOR THE TIMES HE

INSISTED ON LOOKING YOU

IN THE EYES.

I AM HALF HIS WEIGHT BUT ALL HIS RAGE"

Freestyle

The days, the moments, the feels

The time that it takes to be real

I see it before it happens it’s kinda strange

Have you believing that I lack range

Til I open my eyes and I see

See you for whatever it is that you’re trying to be

I speak my truth unapologetically

Something that you rarely see, barely

I confronted you as if you looked in the mirror

Yet you attack my character; and all I want you to do is see clearer

So I take it cause I can and you walk away

Then you pull on my energy cause you wish you would’ve stayed

I lose sleep over your thoughts and my body feels weak

You feel big in your ego because to you I seem meek

But the power I hold is more than you’ll ever know

I can see parts of you that you didn’t think were on show

[Paul] Celan, whose parents were murdered at a camp in the Transnistria Governorate, translated Shakespeare while interned in a ghetto. For him, language was a project to be wrestled with. He believed it was possible for language to make something happen; and even if it didn’t make something happen, then at least it was worthwhile trying. He held people to account for loose language (his short correspondence with Heidegger, that phenomenologist, are extraordinary in their critique), and demanded that attention be paid to the impact that words can have in public.

Pádraig Ó Tuama, from his essay “The possibilities of language”, published at the Poetry Unbound substack, March 26, 2023
