142 MI.²




BOMB
The almond trees
The apricot orchard
The antique store
The archway centuries old
BOMB
The bakeries
The banks
The beaches
The bookstores
BOMB
The coffee shop
The care home
The cats under the awnings
The calendar on the wall
BOMB
The dentist's office
The dessert shop
The dogs on the rooftops
The domino players
BOMB
The eccentrics
The elders
The engineers
The extroverts
BOMB
The farms growing eggplant & garlic
The fig trees
The flock of sheep
The funeral procession
BOMB
The gardens
The graveyards
The goats grazing
The grocery stores
BOMB
The hidden
The homeless
The hopeless
The hungry
BOMB
The jetty shimmering blue
The journalists dodging drones
The junkyard
The jump rope game
BOMB
The kebab stand
The kindergarten
The kiosk selling jewelry
The kite shop
BOMB
The lavender patch
The lost child
The last call to prayer
The long road
BOMB
The marble staircase
The men wandering alone
The mice in the eaves
The mistaken step
BOMB
The nest of swallows
The nearest dreamer
The next person exiting the house
The nurse on the night shift
BOMB
The osprey
The ocean at dusk
The occasional lovers
The olive trees swaying
BOMB
The people dreaming
The people who can't dream
The pots of mint & thyme
The poets unheard
BOMB
The questions typed into phones
The questions formed at dawn
The questions conceived in the drone-buzzing night
The questions not yet answered
BOMB
The rabbits running
The root cellars
The roosters who've stopped crowing
The rugs tinted scarlet in the sunset
BOMB
The safe havens
The starving dreaming of bread
The starving running for bread
The starving too tired to run
BOMB
The teachers of Arabic, Hebrew, English
The towers ornate with tiles & script
The twisting path in the missile-whistling night
The tents crowded into the square
BOMB
The underpaid
The uncomprehending
The unseen
The unknown futures
BOMB
The Victorian poetry books of the English tutor
The violin shop
The vintage records of the songwriter
The vineyards blurry in the smoke-drenched haze
BOMB
The water filtration systems
The western light in the alleys
The wishes not spoken
The wonders not yet beheld
BOMB
The X-typing activist
The X-reading nonsleeper
The x-ray machine in the shaking hospital
The xylophone in the music school
BOMB
The yellow marigolds in the vase
The yarn gathered in the baskets
The yard with the donkey at rest
The youth out looking out at moonlight
BOMB
The zigzag path of the bee
The zodiac pondered by flashlight in the rumbling dark
The zone reserved for the removed
The zoo where the animals starve
