Poetry from Bahtiyar Hidayet

While Looking at Jennifer Lopez’s Photo

Your photo in underwear

Affects the human subconscious.

Your body is like an ancient hourglass,

And you are a modern lady.

Time itself grows old, but you do not.

Your body is like an hourglass,

And perhaps because of this,

You have as many admirers as grains of sand.

Your body is like an hourglass.

The wristwatches of those who are in love with you

Check their pulses like doctors.

They have found heart pain.

Your body is like an hourglass,

And

Wall clocks have grown old.

Now the hands of those clocks

Are like old people walking on three legs.

And

You, on two legs, are both

The most beautiful woman in this world

And the most beautiful in heaven.

You are also like wine.

As the years pass, your quality increases,

And you drive people out of their minds.

But your voice

Is melodious like the sound of a clock.

In what pleasant hour

Of God’s good mood did you come into this world?

This is the most beautiful poem

Written for you.

Save its author

From this hell.
