Mohaned Nur
Four Poems, selected from
My Geopolitics
1. Geopolitics
Meet me in the Kempinski lobby
Through the Emirati fields
When my white master gives me a visa
2. Hmmm
There’s a cheesy ass place in
jumeira
Do you have a place in mind ?
I don’t have a bed
Let me think where we should go
Okay then pick a hotel
I’m in the mall
Alright I’m walking to vox
3. Hahaha
white lies
White tears
White tears is when white people cry
cause they feel bullied
The pope can suck it
They are made for suck in’
It’s right
Come now
3. There’s a lot of things I want to say
Hahaha aww you’re flying to Paris ?
Can I come
What is it in French ?
Baghdad ah
Honestly wish we could meet in a prettier
place
