by Norhan Qasem, Staff Writer

How to begin?

Begin by asking

what you had for 

breakfast.

lunch

dinner—

begin by asking

why rain is wet,

why you can’t catch

rainbows—

begin by asking

why you can’t fly

why people take videos

instead of pictures

to capture moments.

Maybe begin by 

writing about people

You care about

or

where you come from.

But that’s another poem.
