I’m a Palestinian poet and survivor of two wars—Sudan and now Gaza. I lost everything and began writing poetry as a way to survive, heal, and speak truth. https://linktr.ee/ahmedsarsour

The destruction was never a downfall;
He is proud that he kept the war machine rolling,
The death kept enrolling as heads kept bowling.
- excerpt from Walls, Windows, and a Door!

If you read TPOT, a quick rating—or even a 1–2 sentence review—on Goodreads or Amazon would help massively. Your support boosts visibility, recommendations, and helps carry our message further.

Hope to see you there.
Please share with friends and family. ❤️📚✨

It’s a powerful collection celebrating truth, resilience, and community—every toile art scene is inspired by real protests against racism and colonialism.

From its mid-October release until Dec 2 (International Giving Day), 100% of profits went to Islamic Relief to support orphans in Gaza.

In a moment of time, You were safe and sound.
In a blink of an eye, he said goodbye.
Six feet in the ground, away from his arms. He tries to be strong, but he cries.
excerpt from Soul of the Soul

You disgust me like the ones who murder us.
I hate you just the same.

Yet their accounts scream
Of self-agenda and personal gain scheme
They are so busy talking about us
Insted of talking to us.
They say they would save us
But first they need to get famous!

It's day 196
I'm shutting down.
I don't feel the urge to eat anymore!
Nor to breath!
I go to sleep wishing for the next strike to be mine.
The suspense they say!
Well, I can't take it anymore!

They lie to you and you believe them, yet we are telling the truth on a daily basis and you deny
it!
How awful is this?
I don't bother finding an answer anymore.
Because the answer lies within the sounds that disturbe our sleep every night!
Day 196

A trial, they said!
Let's cut off the hygienic products.
Let them itch with fungus — and rabies too.

How about cutting off medicine?
How many will die
if we apply!

So why are you letting them take some and leave others?
Why are you letting them make our hearts literally stop and our voices stutter!
From fear, from anger, from the cold?

The poem reads, "My body shivers, my voice is rubbing, my eyes tear, and my hope is crumbling. The nightmares are back-figuratively and literally. For yu were there to back up the atrocities they called back." lea flowers and gold paint are at the edges of the poem
