It turns out I won the ‘brilliancy prize’ for my poem “This Thing Called Palestine“ by way of the 2005 Andulasia Prize for Literature. I guess it’s something to add to the vanity section of my resume. You can read some of my other pieces at Paper Poetry…

well done. Congrats π
Haitham, hey man thanks π
Hey Naseem, congratulations π

great work! proud of you. did the parents say something like ‘how much did you get for the poem?’ or did they go with the standard ‘is this for one of your courses’? pep from me,’ the poet laureate cant be that far away’ (or an episode of the family guy…whichever comes first”
