Midday Door

with Abū Tammām

The sand alley, a sign,
entrance to the other time,
inner courtyard, 1 person at the
counter, the post office of
Baghdad,
      almost a Far West
or Ur Little Middle East,
faded,
left & lost,
years ago the letter
with postmarked stamps,
on the way,
          still and just.
