Rooftops of Tehran: Interview with Iranian-American Author – Mahbod Seraji

“Lower than dirt… is you”, “I am the light, I am the aching lover, I am the power” are a few lines from the poem/chant – which ends with the line, “I am the owner of this land” – that was written in response to the now infamous-amongst-Iranians phrase: ”Khas-o-Khaashaak”.
