Out of Egypt, Out of Time: Immigrant’s Songs

In this lyrical and evocative collection, poetry becomes a vessel for memory, myth, and migration. Out of Egypt, Out of Time traces the journey of the immigrant’s soul- from ancient temples to the modern city streets of the New World, from ancestral echoes to the quiet ache of displacement. Each poem sings of longing and belonging, of fractured identity and the sacred terrain of exile.

Some verses capture the triumphs and turbulence of Egypt’s 2011 revolution- its cries for dignity, its heartbreaks, and its enduring hope. Others draw from Egypt’s mysterious and glorious mythology, bringing timeless archetypes into the present to illuminate questions of life and death, fragility and eternity.

Guided by the sky goddess Nut- whose arching figure graces the cover- these poems offer shelter to those who walk between worlds. The immigrant’s experience is not merely told; it is mythologized, honored, and reborn. And while each journey is unique, it affirms the shared humanity that binds people across vastly different cultures.

Whether you are a first-generation immigrant seeking solace in words that reflect your own path, or a descendant yearning to understand the emotional legacy of migration, this book speaks directly to the heart.
