Legends agree that poetry was inspired by brides or by demons. The Europeans chose to receive their inspiration from a bride. The Arabs chose to receive their inspiration from Satan. We do not see them differing much in the end, even if they differed slightly in the first step. The end of the bride is to work for the devil. The end of Satan is to work with a bride. We do not think that they ever worked alone in the heart of a human being. Abbas Mahmoud Al-Akkad
