Ghazal for the men i once was
Reza's Restaurant, Chicago, 1997
There are 7,000 living languages
I wouldn't even know what to do with a third chance
In the language of mammon
There is no such thing as an accident of the spirit
Against the parts of me that think they know anything
How to say the impossible thing
Despite my efforts even my prayers have turned into threats
Ghazal for a national emergency
Reading Farrokhzad in a pandemic
Famous Americans and why they were wrong
