"MY FIRST"

Poems:

“Under the Rubble” by Mosab Abu Toha: Less one long poem and more an onslaught of images, a series of gutting haikus – some could be printed on protest signs, others are quieter and more ambiguous. The hit rate is not especially high, but these were obviously written in the midst of the genocide, while Toha struggled with escape; they’re important writing even if they don’t cohere as a poem.
