Hope

I telephoned hope yesterday I asked him: can you  extract for us odor  From onion and haddock?  He said : Sure! I said : and can you  Ignite with water a fire?  He said : sure! I said: is it possible to distill form Colocynth the honey? He said : sure!  I said : and is it possible  to put earth  in Saturn's pocket ? He said : yes… sure! everything is possible I said : then our Arabs [Arab leaders] will feel ashamed someday  He said : not in a million years  will ever happen what you say. — the Iraqi poet Ahmed Matar
