Atef Ayadi - Eileen

Eileen...
Is a complex phrase
Made out of simple words.
She turned me into a simple phrase
Made out of complex words,
And commas racing foolish dots.

Eileen is a woman with whispering eyes
That defeat the galactic distances,
And penetrate through the human skin.

Eileen is an ancient woman
Her destiny is a future station;
And I live only in the present
And I am stuck in the time of
Duals between barons and
Pimps of poetry.

Forgive me
Eileen;
If I could not
Catch your flying whispers
Nearby the heavens.
I agree!
I am a failure!
I am still trying to figure out
How many dots
And commas
I need
To make my first speech.

Atef Ayadi
