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.
