Iraq
/ Karbala / Abbas
Within
Karbala is a small shrine with a turquoise-flied dome;
it is dedicated to Hussain's cousin, Owan, who fell
with him in the holocaust. Presently the dome of Abbas
glints like a golden onion over the date-fronds, gardens
close in about you, modern lighting appears and a street
with pavements and a roundabout.
