The time has come! Maya Abu Al-Hayyat's poetry book "I'm wasting time" is out!
Her poems are full of metaphors that connect everyday philosophical questions, global problems and personal sensitivities. She tries to express uncomfortable truths through linguistic high spirits and sometimes biting sharpness.
Maya Abu Al-Hayyat belongs to a young generation of Palestinian poets who are trying to overcome the wall of the Arabic language and its corresponding thought structures. In her works, she primarily deals with individual feelings about sexuality, war, loneliness and alienation.
Translated from the Arabic by Suleman Taufiq

words
We talk about it for hours
that we don't talk.
It happens that I wish
to sit next to you now
without words.
The words for example
you tell me about a cloud
in a poem
and I hear the militias
beating in my heart!
the words come
if we don't go to them
let's talk about it now.
