THE STONEMASON by Yahya Hassan

 THE STONEMASON

THE MAN IN THE NEIGHBOURING CELL WAS A STONEMASON
HE DREAMED OF CARVING SCULPTURES
BUT WAS EMPLOYED TO CUT COBBLESTONES AND GRAVESTONES
HE ENDED UP CUTTING HIS EX-WIFE HALF DEAD
BECAUSE SHE REFUSED HIM ACCESS TO THE CHILD
NOW SHE VISITS HIM ONCE A WEEK
AND SHE TAKES THE CHILD WITH HER

Existence..... what a strange word

    Existence..... what a strange word. He, set out by determination & curiosity, knows no existence, knows nothing realevent to himself...
