What I chose was based on a combination of personal taste and conviction - which sought to be objective as much as possible - that these examples are worthy of introducing the wide reader to Adwan’s poetic personality. What also requires clarification is that the selection of poems over others was subject to a specific technical factor: that is, the replacement of long poems in favor of medium or short ones, in order to make room for the largest possible number of texts expressing the experience, and in a way that is proportionate to the proposed size of the selections.
Hopefully, these selections will succeed in recalling a lofty poetic stature, represented by “the free son of life,” “the one who exalts himself upon condescension,” bending “with the discipline of a soldier before a spike,” looking “sad and angry, at the perforated shoes of the poor,” biased “to her path filled with the dust of honor.” "; As Mahmoud Darwish expressed in his eulogy for Adwan.
A collection of poetry by poet Adel Mahmoud from the atmosphere of war in Syria.
“To the Syrian heart
who makes love,
After all this hatred, it's possible."
Almost a poet's collection

You are stronger than the wound:
They are texts in the colloquial language

And disappointment and brokenness.

Rubaiyat bin Qalala.
Poetry is sweet words that nourish the heart and conscience of those with good taste. I present to you some verses.
If time had been long, it would not have forgotten you
May my heart be kind and may you make it happy
For years of my life I have been giving you
And in the middle of the heart you have the most beautiful treasures
If the nights keep you away, I will be afraid
The path of your connection, my thought, I am chanting it
I stayed up all night, my dear, and wrote about you
Express my feeling with the most beautiful word
The collection “The Hidden One Who Survives Interpretation” includes 28 poems, some of which are short and some are long, and deals with emotional, national, philosophical and contemplative issues. The relationship with women constitutes an important axis in the collection based on the poet’s refined humane and civilized view of women. Exile also constitutes a major axis since the poet lives in exile. Many years ago. The poet also resorts to writing abstract, contemplative poems sometimes as a result of his interaction with external existence and his preoccupation with humanizing things. The collection in our hands is the eighth in the series of Anwar Al-Khatib’s poetry publications, and it comes in the context of his poetic project that aspires to establish a different language and a different, vibrant and diverse construction of the Arabic poem, so that it escapes itself from routine, repetition, and rigid templates.
