It's our honor to publish this translation of “I Grant You Refuge” by Palestinian poet, novelist, and teacher Hiba Abu Nada. Written October 10th, it is among the last pieces she composed before she was martyred by an Israeli airstrike on October 20th.

Dear Los Angeles and those reading this: I hope you are able to unearth the deep love in your heart through these horrific times. Tonight I will be exhibiting some artworks at Alabaster Projects in Echo Park. This is the only way I know how.

Summer after summer has ended
balm after violence:
it does me no good
to be good to me now;
violence has changed me.
