کفش‌های پاشنه‌بلند – شعری از مجید نفیسی

High-Heeled Shoes

Majid Naficy

        In Memory of Ezzat Executed on January 7, 1982

Your high-heeled Shoes

Still talk to me

From the evenings that we took each other’s hand

And passed through narrow winding alleys

Sniffing, sniffing

By the window of each kitchen.

Tap tap, tap tap

Like the delicate hammering of your father

On his engraving chisel

And the copper plate of your icon

On the wall of my mind.
