Phoenix Wedding
EGP200
In my next life, I will choose another planet—a planet whose earth knows no gravity. A place where I will never have to shield my head from falling apples. A planet whose inhabitants have no need for language, where dance is the means through which they speak to one another. Like a nomad, I will carry my days in the palm of my hand as I wander across open plains. I will perfume my body with lavender so that its fragrance lingers in the memory of my beloved’s unruly senses. Every morning, he saddles his horse to chase gazelles and the wind; every evening, he returns to sprinkle musk upon my pillow, waiting for a sun that dares, once again, to rebel against the setting.
