The first poem that we were given is 'Ghazal' by Qasim Shafiq.
'Somewhere hidden beneath crushed autumn leaves
Under ashen silk webs and burnt bronze leaves
An enraptured heart yearns to be found
Amongst the debris, it beats, shaking dry leaves
Freezing the scene is easy it seems
Dusting sugary frost atop of the leaves
And in the distance footsteps softly fall
Dancing her way through sharp glass leaves
frozen tears settle on her cheeks as she kicks up the leaves
Running away; shadows of a misspent saints youth remain.'
As a group, we think that this poem can be interpreted quite literally using some aspects of the poem such as the autumn scene to create an abstract film.
