The Stone’s Lament

Thank you for posting this! It's well done and also quite inspiring. I don't normally approach poetry but you've really sparked my interest with this poem.

<3 you! If you like the style (and also don't speak Arabic) I recommend Call Me Ishmael Tonight by Agha Shahid Ali. Angels is my favorite, trailed closely by Tonight. 

Wow. You did an amazing job with the structure.. and I've learned something new now about poetry. This is so cool.

I was actually struck by your poem, and almost immediately responded, though I'm glad others did too. It's a really enjoyable piece of work for all it's grimness. I'm reminded of Psalm 88; unique among Psalms, all other 149 Psalms are either exclusively praise, or, while they describe bad things, end on a positive note. Psalm 88, meanwhile, is the only one to go through and have every line be misery, and every single line ends on a bad note.
