Khosrow Golshiri: What will you do with the roots?
Submitted June 21, 2009 - 1:59 pm by Iraj Omidvar

Let's say you think I have been felled!

And my young branches are hacked with your axes!

What will you do with the roots?

Let's say you sit on the walls of this garden in hunt of birds!

You have planted no-fly signs!

What will you do with the chicks in the nests?

Let's say you kill!

Let's say you cut!

Let's say you beat!

What will you do with the unavoidable shoots?
