    The speaker's poem falls apart like a horse that has fallen, with Galilean women dancing in butterflies and dew. The speaker and their love are two absent ones, like white doves chatting in a holm oak tree. Though the speaker loves ancient love poems that protect the moon from smoke, modern language leaves no room to celebrate what is loved. In the end, both the horse and the speaker fall bloodied by what has transpired in the poem.

    The Horse Fell Off the Poem

    BY MAHMOUD DARWISH
    TRANSLATED BY

    FADY JOUDAH

    The horse fell off the poem


    and the Galilean women were wet
    with butterflies and dew,
    dancing above chrysanthemum
    The two absent ones: you and I
    you and I are the two absent ones
    A pair of white doves
    chatting on the branches of a holm oak
    No love, but I love ancient
    love poems that guard
    the sick moon from smoke
    I attack and retreat, like the violin in quatrains
    I get far from my time when I am near
    the topography of place ...
    There is no margin in modern language left
    to celebrate what we love,
    because all that will be ... was
    The horse fell bloodied
    with my poem
    and I fell bloodied
    with the horses blood ...
