Puisi Mamoud Darwish

Think of others", he told them.

As you prepare your breakfast – think of others. Don't forget to feed the pigeons. As you conduct your wars – think of others. Don't forget those who want peace. As you pay your water bill – think of others. Think of those who only have clouds to drink from. As you go home, your own home – think of others – don't forget those who live in tents. As you sleep and count the planets, think of others – there are people who have no place to sleep. As you liberate yourself with metaphors, think of others – those who have lost their right to speak. And as you think of distant others – think of yourself and say, "I wish I were a candle in the darkness."
