snake line

The writer says in her novel: September, O father of the night, has another story. As for today, the rifle is more wonderful than the most wonderful girl, and perhaps it is buried in shame, perhaps your love is the shame and my passion for you is not understood by the people who sit in the houses behind blue windows the color of the war that only befell us, but I will continue to live my astonishment in the bitter fate; I stand firm in it like giants sometimes, and fall exhausted and collapsed other times, for I am the human and you are the weapon, and both of us await a meeting on the ground that we vowed to do once, September is the symbol of the beginning and the end, and in it the snake plotted its way to Jerusalem to usurp its land and write for it in blood the history of a people who struggled for their land Palestine. So who is "Maryam", the heroine of the novel, and who is "Abu al-Layl"? And where did their house in Jerusalem become!
