MOJ MOON LANDING

NEAL,BUZZ AND MOJ
LANDED ON MOON
IT WAS A GIANT LEAP FOR ALL OF US
(NO RELATIONS TO N.Y.GIANTS
OR S.F.GIANTS
OR EVEN GIANT SUPERMARKETS
UNTIL OTHERWISE PROVED)
THEN WE SAID:
NOW WHAT?!
AND NOW 40 YEARS PASSED,
-NOT COUNTING IDA,
WITH SANDS AND TOWERS AND WINDS
WITH ALL UPS
AND DOWNS
ON THE ROAD
OR SETTLED DOWN TEMPORARILY
AT HOME OR OUT OF HOME,
AND STILL WONDER
NOW
WHAT?!

IT IS 40 YEARS I OPENED
MY EYES
TO UNIVERSE
WITH MY VERSE
AND LANDED ON THE MOON
IN NEW YORK,
ON THE WINDS AND
MISTY SKYSCRAPERS.
A LOST CARAVAN
RETURNED TO SAND CASTLE
THE WIND
CAME DOWN
TO RETURN
TO THE SILK WAY.


I AM ALL SILKY
...AND NOW WHAT?!

-F.S.

LEAVE ME !

TAJIKESTAN IN FARSI

silhouette,sayeh ha collection,by:moj book

faramarzsoleimani.com

TAJIKESTAN OFFICIALLY STARTED TO WRITE ,READ AND SPEAK FARSI ON THIS DATE OF 31 TIR 1368/JULY 22,1989 .TAJIKS WERE FORCED TO USE SIRILIC ALPHABET FOR MORE THAN SEVEN DECADES.ENFORCERS WHO ARE KILLERS TRIED TO KILL A LANGUAGE AND THE CULTURE BEHIND IT.ENFORCERS DIED.FARSI LANGUAGE SURVIVED.NOW WE ARE CELEBRATING TAJIKESTAN'S NATIONAL FARSI DAY,IF YOU WILL.
THERE ARE 7000 LANGUAGES AROUND THE WORLD AND HALF OF THEM MIGHT DIE SOON.
UNESCO BELIEVES THAT ABOUT 2500 LANGUAGES ARE IN DANGER OF EXTINCTIONM LIKE ENDANGERED SPECIES.ENGLISH,THE MOTHER TONGUE OF THE WORLD IN 20TH CENTURY AND 2000'S IS THE DOMINANT KILLER AND EXTINGUISHER.115 LANGUAGES LOST THEIR LIVES IN U.S.DURING THE PAST 500 YEARS, INCLUDING 53 SINE 1950
AND ONE IN 2008 : EYAK LANGUAGE IN ALASKA WITH THE DEATH OF THE LAST PERSIAN WHO WAS ABLE TO SPEAK ITTHEN COMES SPANISH AS THE LANGUAGE OF "CONQUISTADORES" ,ARABIC ,THE RELIGIOUS LANGUAGE,RUSSIAN,THE LANGUAGE OF FAILED EMPIRE,AND SOON CHINESE OR EVEN HINDI.SO BE READY!
ENGLISH KILLED MANY LANGUAGES AROUND THE WORLD,OR WEAKENED THEM TO STEP ASIDE,INCLUDING LANGUAGES OF NATIVE AMERICANS.THIS IS A PHENOMENON WITH A LONG HISTORY OF 100,000 YEARS OR MORE,AND STILL GOING.IN THE PAST 10 000 YEARS THAT HUNTERS TURNED TO AGRICULTURE AND GATHERED IN PRIMARY COMMUNITIESTHE DOMINANT LANGUAGES APPEARED TO A BIG FORCE TO SILENCE SMALLER GROUPS.THEN URBAN COMMUNITIES STARTED AND MIGRATION STARTED FOR ABETTER LIFE,OR THE WORSE AND LANGUAGES CORRUPTED,CONTAMINATED,CONVERTED
STAINED OR FULLY DISSAPEARED
THERE WERE NOT SO MANY LANGUAGES TO RESIST CONQUERORS AND GAVE IT UP OR AS USUAL TRAITORS DEFEATED THEM BY OPENING THE BACK DOORS.
O BACK DOORS !ALWAYS IN THE BUISENESS OF WRITING HISTORY ANEW...
SOMETIMES CONQUERORS GAVE UP AND RETURNED OR REGRESSED.ALEXANDER WHO NOW GETS A FACE LIFT BY HOLLYWOOD MOVIES OR SOAP OPERA HELINISTIC SCHOLARS,THE LIKE OF HERODOTUS,FELL IN LOVE WITH IRANIAN CULTURE(AND WOMEN,AND SHIRAZ WINE WAS SO GOOD TOO)AND BECAME IRANIAN ,WITH HIS SELEUCID EMPIRE ,DISSOLVED IN PERSIAN EMPIRE AND ITS CULTURE,THOUGH ALEXANDER STILL LOOKS LIKE A GREAT PHILOSOPHER,BETTER THAN HIS MASTER ARISTOLE, IN THESE SERIALS RATHER THAN A DRUNKARD SERIAL KILLER.
I DO NOT TRUST THE EDITOR OF "WORLDS AT WAR",A REDABLE BOOK WITH CAUTION, WHO WROTE HIS STORY BOOK THROUGH "FATHER OF FAKE HISTORY"WITHOUT DOING MUCH OF RESEARCH IN REAL HISTORY BOOKS.THIS BUISENESS OF "WE GREK AGAIST ALL OTHER THE WORLD AS BARBARIAN" IS A RAG RATIONAL,MEANING NONESENSICAL.
THE SAME IS THROUGH WITH THESE PUBLICATIONS ,FACE LIFTING THE OTHER GRAND KILLER NAMED TEMUDGIN OR JENGIZ, AND PROMOTING HIM TO SPIRITUAL LEADR AND QUASI PROPHET. HE CONQUERED THE OLD WORLD ALL THE WAY FROM MOMGOLIA OF CHINA TO PRESENT DAY ENGLAND BUT THANKS TO DESTINY THERE WAS A FIGHT BACK HOME IN HIS TRIBE AND HE LEFT HIS VERSION OF "NEW WORLD"
AND RUSHED BACK.OTHERWISE WE ASIAN AND EUROPEAN ALL THE WAY TO THE GREAT LITTLE UNITED ISLANDS ,WHO FOUGHT MANY WARS AFTER RAPE OF EUROPA,WOULD SPEAK MONGOLI,PROBABLY THE MOTHER TONGUE OF ALL TURKIC ,AND OUR OWNLANGUAGE WOULD BE DEAD FOR 9 CENTURIES.
BUT THE LANGUAGE NEVER IS DEAD EVEN IF IT IS DEAD.IT IS LIKE HUMANITY AND HUMAN BEINGS.IT IS LIKE POETS AND WRITERS.THEY HAVE SEVEN SOULS AND LIVE IN SEVEN STORIES OF HEAVENS.
IF 20TH CENTURY IS THE TIME OF LOST AND FORGOTTEN LANGUAGES,IT IS THE TIME OF RESURRECTION,AS WELL.THIS ESPECIALLY TRUE IN AFRICA, EX SOVIET UNION DOMAIN AND MIDDLE EAST ,IN FARSI ,TURKISH AND KURDISH SPEAKING REGIONS,AND TAJIKESTAN IS ONE GOOD EXAMPLE.
THAT,S WHY FARSI IN TAJIKESTAN DID NOT DIE.
HAPPY FARSI DAY,TAJIKESTAN!

SORRY!
(to continue..)

ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WERE
KINGS AND QUEENS
SQUATTING LONELY AT THE END OF LONG HALLWAYS
ON BLOODY BONES AND STONES
THEN CAME
BAREFEET BEGGARS AND BAKERS
WOMEN WITH THEIR NEWBORN SOUL
AND SHADOWS OF LOST CHILDREN
WHEAT AND RICE FARMERS
WORKERS,MUD LAYERS,BRICK MASONS
AND THERE WERE BLUE COLLAR POETS
THE BARDS AND TROUBADOURS
WHO BROKE THEIR SILENCE
AND SAILED TO STREETS
TO SING ALONG THEIR SONGS
FOR ORDINARY PEOPLE
FOR THE PEOPLE OF MIRAGE
AND REALITY
IN THE KINGDOM OF PEN
AND POSSIBILITIES
AND THE SKY WAS BLUE
WHEREVER THEY WENT.
2
UNDER THE BLUE SKY
I WANTED TO INVITE YOU
TO RECITE WORDS AND METAPHORS
I WANTED TO BRING YOU OVER
TO CELEBRATE 100TH ANNIVERSARY
OF YOUR BIRTH
(NOW AT 105)
BUT THE WORLD LOOKS SO GLOOMY
I MEAN IT IS BLOODY DARK
FOR HATRED AND WARS
AND I AM AFRAID
YOUR HEART
YOUR FRAGILE LOVELY HEART
IS GOING TO HURT
SO REST IN PEACE
GOOD NIGHT PABLITO
SLEEP WELL
IN YOUR ISLA NEGRA DE CHILE
WITH YOUR BELOVED MATILDE
WITH FIRE AND ASHES
SND LOVE
HASTA SIEMPRE!

ALL OVER THE WORLD
AT A GOOD TIME IN FALLING OF BODY
BUTTERFLY WAS HIDING BEHIND A WALL
AND DUST
FLUTTERING THROUGH UNSEEN SKIN
AND SHADOWS OF SEPTEMBER
WERE SINGING A SONG OF SORROWS
AND LOVED THE SILENCE
WHO TOOK THE DUST WALL WITH THEM
AT A GOOD TIME OF FALLING OF BODY
A HAND CAME THROUGH THE WALL
AT A TIME OF ORCHARD WITHERING
AND SUN
AND EARTH
A RECURRING TIME OF MAN AND BUTTERFLY
A TIME OF TIME
OF CERTAIN FALL
A HAND TO BECOME A DUST PALM
AT A GOOD TIME OF FALLING OF BODY
O LOVE
O FLUTTERING BUTTERFLY
OF FOREVER
IN FALLING TIME

AT TIME
LOVE IS SINKING IN PACIFIC
-NOW A CRYING BURMA/MYANMAR
IN MEXICO,BARCELONA,PARRAL,TEMUCO,SANTIAGO
LOVE IS GROWING IN SOLDIERS EYES OF
ESPANIA EN EL CORAZON
A MERMAID THEN IS BORN
IN ISLA NEGRA
YOU WROTE THE NAMES OF ALL THE WORLDS
LOVERS ON TIMBERS AND STONES
YOU GREW GRASS
AND LAID BRICKS ON BRICKS
WITH THEIR POETRY AND BOOKS
IN THE SHADOWS OF ANDES
IN MACCHU PICCHU OR PATAGONIA
BUTTERFLY TOOK A LONG ETHEREAL ROAD
TO COME TO SEE ALL OF YOU
THEY WERE NOT THERE
YOU WERE NOT THERE
YOU WERE GROWN IN ASHES
WITH YOUR MATILDE URRUTIA
WHOSE LOVE WAS SINKING
IN PACIFIC
AND WAS BORN A MERMAID AGAIN
IN ISLA NEGRA
6
IN ISLA NEGRA
IT WAS NOT LATE TO WARM UP AGAIN
IT WAS JUST LATE TO EXPRESS
WARM INVITATIONS
MATILDE IS LOVE
MATILDE IS IN LOVE OF LONELINESS
A LONELINESS TOGETHER
AND FARAWAY DRINKS EL SOL
IN THE GARDEN OF ROSES
AND NIGHTINGALES
MATILDE IS NAME
UNTIL IT IS A NEW NAME
WITH E/OR A
MATILDE IS LOVE
MATILDE IS IN LOVE OF LONELINESS
SHE IS THE ECLECTION OF RAINBOW
WHEN IT RAINS IN NAKED BODY AND SOUL
UNDER FIRING CLOACK OF SUN
SO LET'S HIDE UNDER DARKNESS
LET'S LIGHT UP IN CHASMS OR VALLEYS
WHILE THE PEAKS ARE MIRRORED
IN THE OCEAN OF WAVES
I SAID WAVES,MATILDE
I MEAN WHITE WARM RHYTHMS AND RHYMES
LAYING WITHOUT RHYMES AND RHYTHMS
"MATILDE URRUTIA I'M LEAVING YOU HERE
ALL I HAD AND I DIDN'T HAVE
ALL I AM AND I AM NOT"
OR WITH ALL THE BLUE LANDSCAPE
7
UNDER THE BLUE LANDSCAPE
MATILDE
WAS A GREAT LOVE
A GREAT LOVER
IN THE EYES OF ALLEYS OF CAPRI
WITH EL CAPITAN
IN STREETS OF SANTIAGO
ON THE HILLS OF VALPARADISO
OR THE BEACH OF ISLA NEGRA
IN SANDS AND WAVES
MATILDE URRUTIA WAS A GREAT LOVER
A GREAT LOVE

ONCE IN TEATRO COUPOLOCA SHE SAID:
"IT WAS JOY THAT PABLO LOVED
AND FOR THAT REASON
I AM NOT GOING TO ASK HERE
THAT WE REMEMBER HIM
WITH A MINUTE OF SILENCE
NO
I'M GOING TO ASK FOR PABLO
A MINUTE OF JOY
A LOT OF NOISE
MUCH APPLAUSE..."

AND NOW THAT SHE SAID AGAIN:
"I'M HAPPY AT LAST
I'M GOING WITH MY PABLO..."

WE CELEBRATE FOR BOTH LOVERS
IN JOY
IN NOISE
IN APPLAUSE
IN WORDS AND METAPHORS
IN POETRY
IN LOVE
THOUGH PABLITO STILL HAS HIS OWN QUESTION:
"SI HE MUERTO Y NO ME HE DADO CUENTA
A QUIEN LE PREGUNTO LA HORA?/
IF I HAVE DIED AND DON'T KNOW IT
OF WHOM DO I ASK THE TIME?"

poet and critic

A*SH*N*A

محمد حقوقی : لا ک پشت ها 

به انتخاب شاعر 

لاک پشت 

شن ها را 

به گودال 

فرو می ریخت 

و زمان همچنان بر ایستگاه می گذشت 

(سال ٦٢-در انزلی -بیش از این دو سطر را نتونستم نوشت )

مادرم 

در گور 

قرار 

می گرفت 

و زمان هم چنان بی ایستگاه می گذشت 

(سال ٦٣-در اصفهان-بیش از این دو سطر را نتونستم نوشت )

آمفی تاتر دیگر 

از زیر خاک 

بیرون 

آمده بود 

و زمان هم چنان بی ایستگاه می گذشت 

(سال ٦٤ -در سوییس - بیش از این دو سطر را نتونستم نوشت )

گذاران سال دو هزار از قتل سزار 

- "بروتوس ! تو،هم!"-

و آنگاه که همراهم گفت :

ءچه گفتی"

گفتم:

هیچ-

و رو به ساحل راه افتادم 

آن جا که به دنبال هزاران لک پشت نوزاد 

که به سوی دریا می دویدند 

کلمات بر کاغذ 

سرازیر 

می شدند 

" دیدن آمفی تاتر در سوییس که تازه کشف شده بود و از زیر خاک در آمده بود در سال ٦٤ مرا به یاد سال ٦٣ می انداخت وقتی که مادرم را در گور می گذاشتند و گور مادر مرا به یاد خاطره یی در انزلی می آورد وقتی که لاک پشتی دشت زمین را می کند لاک پوشت ، ماده ای که در ماسه ها تخم می گذشت - همان که پس از تماشای آمفی تاتر در سوییس در خیال من یکی پس از دیگری از تخم در می آیند و به سوی دریا می دوند .لاک پشت ها با کلمات تازه شعر من ،همان شهری که در سال ٦٢ فقط دو سطر آن را بیشتر نتونستم بنویسم و در سال ٦٣ هم دو ستر و در سال ٦٤ هم -لاک پشت و خاک کنایه از تولد -مادر و خاک کنایه از مرگ و آمفی تاتر در خاک مانده و از خاک بر آمده کنایه از مرگ و تولد هر دو با هم ، و روابطی که در این میان به وجود می آید ...

POETS AND POETRY NEVER DIE.
MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI IS STILL HERE.
HE HAS NOT GONE YET FOREVER.
HE WILL BE BACK.HE STAYS WITH US.
IN POETRY AND PROSE,MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI IS HERE.
I ASSURE YOU .I KNOW IT. I KNOW HIM.
ONCE HE SAID:
ALL REMAIN A CHILD
WHOSE LOOK
ARE LEFT BEHIND
IF THOSE TRAVELLERS FAR AND AWAY
WITH TREMBLING FINGERS TOWARDS BIRTH

MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI, POET AND CRITIC  محمد حقوقی 

b 13 Ordibehesht 1316,Isfahan,Iran/3 May 1937
d 8 Tir 1388 / 29 June 2009
AS A YOUNG POET,HE JOINED OTHER WRITERS OF ESFEHAN SUCH AS AHMAD AND HUSHANG GOLSHIRI,AHMAD MIRALAI,ABOLHASAN NAJAFI,MAJID NAFICY , JALIL DUSTKHAH,Dr Bahram Sadeghi, AND OTHERS IN JONG ESFEHAN/ESFEHAN ANTHOLOGY AND IN LATE 1350'S MOVED TO TEHRAN TO ATTEND TEHRAN SUPERIOR SCHOOL.
INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH,IN THOSE YEARS HE WAS VERY MUCH INTO SPORT AND SOCCER GAMES AND LIKE HIS BROTHER HOSSEIN IN MEDICAL SCHOOL , MADE IT TO SCHOOL TEAM FOR COLLEGE COMPETITION.
HOGHUGHI WHO WAS MANUCHEHR ATASHI'S ROOMMATE AND STUDYING AT THE SAME SCHOOL WITH POETS SUCH AS ASGHAR VAGHEDI AND ESMAIL KHOI AMONG OTHERS,STARTED WRITING AND PUBLISHING GHAZALS AND GRADUALLY TURNED TO MODERN POETRY AND FOLLOWING IT IN MODERATION.
HIS DESCRIPTIVE NOTES ON POEMS EVOLVED INTO BOOKLENGHT CRITICAL ESSAYS ON SOME PROMINENT PERSIAN POETS SUCH AS NIMA,FORUGH,SHAMLU,SEPEHRI ,AKHAVAN,AND THEIR POETRY.
MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI ,WHEN RETURNED FROM HIS LONG TRIP TO SWITZERLAND FOR HEART SURGERY IN 1364/1985, WAS NOT THE SAME ENERGETIC GUY I USED TO KNOW IN SOCCER FIELDS ,OR WITH HANGING SHOES ON HIS SHOULDERS AFTER THE GAMES.HE GREW GRAY BEARD AND LOOKED LIKE FREUD,AS BARAHANI ALWAYS MOCKED HIM WITH LAUGHTERS,AND ATTENDED MOSTLY SMALL OR LARGER GATHERINGS OF POETRY RECITALS ONLY IN SILENCE AND THOUGHTS.BUT HE WAS STILL STRIVING HARD TO FOLLOW CONTEMPORARY PERSIAN POETRY VERY CLOSELY AND UPDATE HIS ' SHER NOW AZ AGHAZ TA EMRUZ 'TO PREPARE IT FOR SECOND EDITION.
HOGHUGHI STARTED PUBLISHING HIS BOOKS OF POETRY IN ESFEHAN AND CONTINUED THROUGH ALL THESE YEARS , SUPPLEMENTING WITH LITERARY CRICISM AND FARSI BOOKS FOR SCHOOLS AND STUDENTS...

IN ESFEHAN:
ANGLES AND ORBITS,1969
WINTERY SEASONS,1969
IN TEHRAN:
EASTERNERS,1972
INEVITABLE ESCAPES,1978
WITH NIGHT,WITH WOUND,WITH WOLF,1978
A THOUSAND WING COCK,1989
NIGHT,PERMANENT,NIGHT,1991
MODERN POETRY,FROM BEGINNING TO TODAY,MODERN PERSIAN POETRY OF 46 MAJOR PERSIAN POETS FROM 1300/1921 TO 1370/1991,2ND ED;RAVAYAT,TEHRAN 1371/1992
OF THE MORNING OF SILVER AND ASH
FROM THE HEART TO DELTA
THE LONG HALLWAYS OF EVENING
THE BASKETS IN 15 BOOKS,INCLUDING LAMENT OF ROBAB,FOR POET'S MOTHER,AND MORE(UNPUBLISHED)
POEMS OF BERN
SURFACES OF POETRY IN LINES OF PROSE(UNPUBLISHED)...
HOGHUGHI ,AS A STRUCTURALIST CRITIC OF POETRY WHO WROTE ESSAYS AND BOOKLENGHT CRITICISMS ON WORKS OF CONTEMPORARY POETS,BELIEVED THAT :
A REAL POET ,UNTIL THE MOMENT OF FINISHING THE LAST LINE OF POEM,WILL NOT KNOW HOW AND WHAT IS WRITTEN THERE.
HOGHUGHI ONLY RECOGNIZED ALL THIS CREATIVE ACTIVITIES THROUGH A "SPECIAL CIRCLE OF STRUCTURE FOR THAT SPECIAL POEM"(from INTERVIEW WITH ME'YAR)
SOME OF HOGHUGHI'S WORKS IN THE FIELD OF POETRY CRITICISM ARE AS FOLLOWS:
POETRY AND POETS
FACES OF PERSIAN POETS,1351/1972
POETRY OF OUR TIME ON:
AHMAD SHAMLU
FORUGH FARROKHZAD
SOHRAB SEPEHRI
NIMA YUSHIJ
MEHDI AKHAVAN SALESS...
THE LIMIT IS THIS,GHATREH,TEHRAN 1381/2002,A COLLECTION OF ESSAYS AND INTERVIEWS.
ALSO:
COASTAL POEMS,A BOOK OF THE LAST SELECTED POEMS BY MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI IS STILL UNDER SURVEILANCE BY OFFICIALS UP TO PRESENT TIME ,
TO OBTAIN PERMIT FOR PUBLICATION.

THIS IS A LINE OUT OF HIS OWN POEMS in مرثیه رباب THAT MOHAMMAD HOGHUGHI,THE POET OF WINTERY SEASONS, LIKED VERY MUCH,OUT OF HIS POEMS ,AND ALWAYS QUOTED OR RECITED IT:
THE EVER NIGHT OF YOUR BONY REEDS
ON THE EVER LIPS OF DEATH
شب همیشه ی نی های استخوانی تو بر لب همیشه ی مرگ
/SHAB E HAMISHEH YE NEY HAYE OSTEKHANI YE TO BAR LAB E HAMISHEH YE MARG/

AND NOW,THESE ARE THE LINES I RECITED FOR THE POET OF DARABAD AND DEDICATED TO HIM IN MY BOOK:"GREEN AND WHITE AND RED / SABZ O SEPID O SORKH "(MOJ BOOK 1378/1999)AND NOW I AM GOING TO RECITE THEM TIME AND AGAIN,AS 'IN INVASION TOO THE GARDEAN STARTS ANEW..."

HE IS TIRED OF LOVING
BEHIND THE WALLS OF
FEVER AND COUGH
ON THE OTHER SIDE
SOMEONE IS PLAYING
FOR HIS HEART
SOMEONE IS GIVING HIS SOUL
AS RANSOME

IN THE LANDSCAPE OF DUST
IS STARING
THE VALLEY OF DARABAD

THE SUNS OF SISTER'S MIRROR
-IN MEMORIAM:FORUGH

THE NIGHT SLEEPS IN SILENCE
THE NIGHT IN ALL ANGLES
WHERE IS THE DISCOVERER
O LADY SPEAK UP
O LADY LOOK
ON A STAGE CONNECTING MIRRORS
TO WATERS OF COPULATIVE

O LADY LOOK
0 LADY SPEAK UP
THE RARITY RUNNING BROOKS
THE SUNS OF SISTER'S MIRROR
WHEN SUDDENLY AWAKEN
OF MORNING SLEEP
THERE ARE NEVER LINES
OF DISTANCE

O LADY LOOK
O LADY SPEAK UP!
(BY:M.HOGHUGHI,TR.BY:F.SOLEIMANI)

*AMONG 1000 POETS OF 70 YEARS ,46 MAJOR PERSIAN POETS ARE SELECTED
IN HOGHUGHI'S BOOK,
-WHO ARE 4.6 PER CENT OF THEM-
AND THESE POETS ARE REPRESNTED BY THEIR BIOGRAPHIES AND OUEVRES
EVOLVING THROUGH SEVEN DECADES OF
MODERN PERSIAN POETRY,BETWEEN 1300 TO 1370.
BY NOW 28 OF THE SELECTED POETS ARE GONE and passed away ,
WHICH MAKES IT TO 60 PER CENT OF THEM,
SO THERE ARE 18 POETS IN HOGHUGHI'S LIST WHO ARE STILL LIVING,
AND THE WORLD SEEMS TO BE A BIG VOID WITHOUT THEM ALL.
BUT
POETS AND POETRY NEVER DIE ...
AND THE ROAD WILL CONTINUE WITH YOUNGER PACES AND VOICE.
I am planning to modify and expand Hoghughi's list as IRANIAN POETS OF THE CENTURY/         شاعران قرن ایران  ١٣٠٠ - ١٤٠٠
