Simple as the poor
You see time passing away from the courtyard

The world is crowded with evening ghosts
People talk and argue generously
Places inhabited by deaf breaths
Digesting what remains of the bad past
And you see time slipping from the courtyard
As if it were fleeing without clothes!
You find them sitting talking with gestures
Sitting and silence whispering a secret
Standing exhausted from the fatigue of consolation
Lost in the depths of simplicity and prostitution
Waiting for the truth absent from the atmosphere
Dreaming of destiny in order to survive
Wondering their fate like strangers
Suffering alone from the shackles of resentment
Luck may come to them quickly and easily
And pleasure may lead them to the gates of misery
Separated from their souls like cowards
Exhausted from their dark speculations
Rushing with questions like howling
Weighed down with wild secrets
Falling into traps like branches
Lying to themselves with nonsense
Suppressing their anger from mockery
Suppressing their helplessness with pride
In their eyes are words mostly hypocrisy
On their faces, they are hateful in ignorance
And their bodies are wrapped like mummies
Until the ghosts attack them with exhaustion
Then they come upon them Time of retribution
Some of them take revenge on each other stupidly
And their shouting remains there alone, building
And waving loyalty over the ruins of their complex
As if he wanted to free their contract with praise
They have no wealth except what they gave in loyalty
And they have no good except prayer
Until the spark of healing saves their souls

I have always been interested in poetry and essay, especially rhyme style, so I decided to post my essay here and see if I have any talent in poetry or not.
