Here I set your memory ablaze; may it burn until it glows...

Teta
Today is the 20 year anniversary of my grandma's passing, the event that got me into poetry... I seem to have dried up recently, but here's some of what I'd written for her during the years:
Well, do that soon, for me. W sallimleh 3layha... (No need to post poems to the tomb just to get comments about how it's blasphemous to write in English on Arabic graves; thank you!)

I'm sure she's smiling at you proudly from where she is~
I know that this is not appropriate to say in such a context, but darn you're gorgeous.
I still have not visited her (no I do not believe myself either). May God bless her.

1. How modest of you, how you mentioned nothing in response to how gorgeous you are.
2. Since I'm in an FYP mood, it would be lovely to cover her grave from roots to tips with your poetry. How outrageous. Delicious.
Mwa,

What a horribly open conversation.
Habibi, you need to get some sleep! That FYP is screwing with your brain... Mwa!
