A whole nation has created the kindling
Which owes you desperately
But it hasn鈥檛 been specified

Or A firestorm?

Block No.7:

Rosa Jamali

(TRANSLATED FROM ORIGINAL PERSIAN INTO ENGLISH BY ROSA JAMALI)”
Rosa Jamali, Selected Poems of Rosa Jamali

“This book is nothing less than a linguistic exploration of a new language via the poetic form.

Like so many before him, Yanito takes an established form of poetry, in this case the haiku, in order to assert both the value and sheer existence of his mother tongue, Llanito.

As yet a formally unestablished language, Yanito intermingles the liberty that this affords with an established poetic structure in order to call attention to the beauty and (local) relevance of Llanito, in much the same way as poets from all over Europe used the Italian sonnet to lend weight and aesthetic beauty to their budding languages.”
