Mohammed Afifi Matar in recognition of his creative writings spanning more than four decades. His vast poetic experience is informed by classical and modern Arabic poetry, international poetry, popular heritage and philosophy. His writings shed light on the status quo and are committed to its causes and issues. A comparison of his early poetry collection <em>Wal Nahr Yalbas Al Aqni\u2019a (And the River Wears Masks) <\/em>and other later poetry collections such as <em>Ruba\u2019iyat Al Farah<\/em> (The Quatrains of Joy) reflects the extent of his poetic development, which allowed him to bring together knowledge and aesthetics on one hand and politics and Sufism on the other, hence achieving a harmony between the tangible and the symbolic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Matar has turned his experience of alienation in daily life into poems that eloquently express both individual and collective sentiments at the same time. His poems give a critique of reality and yearn for new horizons that underline aesthetic, patriotic and moral values and stands for important Arab causes.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e908f03 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\"
