A Fight with the Guards

NAHAR AND I WERE LIKE THE WILD ANIMALS of the desert. We could sniff our prey from far away, and would pounce on it brilliantly. We knew the desert—its dunes, hills, and sandy plains—like a man knows the lines of his own palms. We knew the places of pasture and abundance, the dry riverbeds, and the water holes. We made our way guided by cairns and stars, and we raced with the wolves and sought shelter with hyenas in their lairs. Many a time we’d choose a cave where we could rest and spend a night or more. True, we used to rob innocent people, true, we were thieves, but believe me, my brother Tawfiq, we never killed anyone unless our lives were in danger and we had to defend ourselves.
