SHAYTAN



I saw Shaytan, 
wearing a glamorous mini, 
showing her teeth, 
covering only the teat
with a rope 
that wasn't strong enough 
to climb her palm tree with. 
She flashed 
with her headlights.
I saw the illuminating stars 
in her baby blue 
beneath her protracted brow.
She signaled 
with her forefinger, 
with her half-opened door,
curtainless door. 
My eyes captured the picture 
I wanted to view from all angles. 
Then, I entered,
and couldn't say ta'awuzu 
behind the closed door.
