Resurrection

Zein Sa'dedin

Give birth to
the Dead Sea
in December
and the Jordan
will fall to its
knees in prayer.

Kiss her lips
and suffocate
yourself in her
salt and she
will carry you
slowly to the

surface three
days later.

‘Resurrection’ was published in 2016 as part of the UEA Undergraduate Creative Writing Anthology, Undertow.
