Review of works by poets:
Nima,Atashi...
...
خلاصه شد
وقت اثیر و مخمل
و ساده شد
باد دانه های قمری خاموش را بر می چید
در سه شنبه یی مثل ١٣ شهریور یا آذ ر یا دی
مثل
...ت ا ر ی
*Brief,he became
At the time of ether and velvet
And became simple
Wind was picking the seeds of a silent dove
On a tuesday like 13 Shahrivar or Azar or Dey

like
