Kitaab

are revelations

each word confers a knighthood

and the reader becomes the well read

he has eyes which once were blind and now admit just enough light to spectate the world and its dizzy treasures

yet the gifted globes may be put out in battle discarded one by one

in an extinction

still the image remains undistorted in his mind

and there it rests until the dying of the light and the dying of his days
