the child counted twenty three lambs
a criança contou vinte e três carneirinhos
the child counted twenty three lambs, covered in soft wool, in order
to be less cold as she remembered her mother knitting
baby-pink booties.
a criança contou vinte e três carneirinhos, cobertos de lã macia, para
sentir menos frio a lembrar-se da mãe a tricotar umas botas de dormir
cor de rosa bebé.

There’s a Jasmine Town for you
The sea is for us all
ONE NEVER RETURNS TO THE SAME PLACE
The Grape is a Sacred Fruit
The most innocent of hours
The little girls from Syria – I
The little girls from Syria – II
