Aneres

Born in the depths of Poseidon’s realm, a symbol of beauty

A mystic creature singing in celebration of immortality

Addict to my voice and become tipsy,

Let my music fill your being, yield to me

Listen, bedazzled, while giving your soul willingly,

I award you death, to lead you to truth of purity

My exquisiteness disgraces Aphrodite and Venus

Bow to me, man, angel, and gin, bow in hypnosis

Let aqua waves tenderly cradle silver tresses

Let Appolo’s glare become shy in the presence of amethyst eyes

Let delicate bubbles tickle a lean body

Let mighty Ares and Eros burn with jealousy

Away from your eyes, I’m hidden

You can’t defile me with your thoughts, I’m forbidden

Protect you not, for I am a curse

My spell is passion and loves noxious thirst

Splendor mocking Zeus’s art

Seductress of every beating heart

Song is enough to ensnare your senses

A lone note will set you restless

Circe isn’t your ally and you are not Ulysses

Sorceress isn’t with you, unaided in my clutches

Yet you chance to perceive my face,

My granted ecstasy will be your slaughtering embrace.

Rush

Rush to me
...quickly flow through me
Do what you do so marvelously to me
Bring back the passion
...while we are mixed in fusion
Let me hear you humming
...hold me tight, caressing

Look to me
...those eyes piercing me
With that stare possessing me
Bring back the pleasure
...inundate me with rapture
Shine down upon me
...fill my soul with warmth, divinely

Speak to me
...lips tasting syrupy
Thoroughly pleasing me
Bring back the sensation
...the sweetest intoxication

I implore you
...so I may adore you.

The Crossing

Emerging capabilities of the flourishing soul

An ample of philosophies, wonders untold

Addiction to discovery

No desire, no antidote for recovery

Scorching thirst is mysterious

To unattainable knowledge, delirious

My world is mine,

Welcoming you anytime

We’re about to jump,

Tightly hold my hand

Crossing to the other side,

Imagination and determination are in demand

Hold your breath, we have reached the threshold

Hold on tight, you’re about to explore

Gravity…

Back to the coffee shop corner; your reality.

He's Love

Darkness fiercely swallows the existence

The mute world reeks with the stench of death

Hope being abstract is useless,

It must be touched

Too weak to keep up the resistance,

She struggles for breath

Then he opens his eyes

He holds the light in his left

What’s left in his right is the hope

It all has a shape now;

It all can be heard and touched

Now love is a being,

He was love all along.

Omega Dune

View from our Omega

The Omega on the right side of the Main Gate Plaza at AUB was my hang out place during my college years.  My friends and I, a group of people from different majors, experiences and backgrounds sat there at around noon.  It was truly a demonstration of unity and love between the Lebanese youth.  Today, May 13, 2008 is a day of sorrow since the Lebanese people have been killing each other for the past week over ridiculously obsolete matters. 

I prey for the return of the Omega days.

Omega Dune

Let us meet at around noon

On the right side Omega dune

A mix of sects, experiences and races

A mix of brothers, friends, and familiar faces

Let it be through Main Gate

Let our pandemic escape

Infecting those with reason and tolerance

Putting an end to chaos and grief, no hindrance

Let us meet at around noon

On the right side Omega dune

Let us show them what it means to be one

Let us show them what it looks like to have the conflict done
