The Cawing of Crows in My Throat
EGP150
In the eyes of great writers, I am a poor writer. In the eyes of poets, I am an intruder—a collector of the dry remnants of words. In the eyes of profound readers, I am a superficial reader. In the eyes of the distinguished intellectuals, I am hollow. In the eyes of the religious, I am a sinner; and in the eyes of the most devout, I am a heretic. In the eyes of my tribe, I am a shameful regret, a disgrace. In the eyes of my relatives and family, I am a lasting dishonor. In the eyes of my friends, I am a source of mockery. In the eyes of creditors and landlords, I am a deceiver. In the eyes of women, I am ugly. In the eyes of children, I am frightening.
