"...What surprises me is the liberty in which he [Hussam] writes his poems; creating new images,
shoving new vocabularies in the ancient dictionary of poetry...Not only a buffoon bird, but also pain,
disappointments, sadness, and futureless horizons. Thank you Hussam for this fearlessness and sensitivity."
