Dear
Friend,
I write fiction. I live in Europe. I also write for
newspapers. I was
a so-called foreign correspondent in the middle east for 15
years.
I lived in occupied territories ( Palestine ) for more than
half of
those years. I don't know what to say. I will try and write
you a
poem.
She said :
I gotta go home
My foreign pages
are all home pages
by now
I gotta go home
they don't need me
here no more
She said :
Don't worry
I'll be back soon
as a political
refugee.
She was one of the foreign correspondents in the middle east
for some
15 years, also. She came from Sarajevo. I believe I first
met her in
Beirut. I know she knew what the term " political refugee"
meant.
Take care.
