Prayers

The Virgin Mary wakes up with me
Preparing the breakfast which I always forget,
Blessing me with pocket-money,
A yellow uniform with yellow buttons, to be invisible in the break,
A black bag to absorb the darkness, which passes in the reciting period,
And a broom that says "morning" to the sky and washes the asphalt,
So that the sun sees herself in its mirror.

I'm still feeling the stomachache
When I see Ayman, I cross my self
Laughing and carrying tow aches in the stomach
- Ready to recite?
No -
- Miss Stick will beat the feet of innkeepers
- May God make her die
I, God, Ayman don’t like her
We made a deal on Thursday,
I would pray in El-Sheikh Ibrahim mosque,
Ayman would pray in the Angel church,
And god would take her off her wooden hands, class 3/2 and reciting
On Saturday;
We found her wooden hands in the drawer, her head up and her eyes in the plate
She died in his hands while reciting ….
I meet clever children crying
While the three of us are happy.
