From the Book
"God, I Am Here" by Vagif Samadoghlu
42
Oh, my God,
What if this were the only street on the earth!
What if there were no other window in the world
Except for this one.
What if no other dog could bark in the world
Except for our neighbour's.
What if the light of this lamp were the only light
And the smoke of this cigarette, the only smoke
on the earth.
Oh, my God,
What if tonight there were no other poet in the world
Except for me.
Oh, my God,
What if there were neither victory nor defeat in this world.
