I can’t post the text of the poem “Shake The Dust” by Anis Mojgani both because it is almost certainly covered by copyright and also because I haven’t seen an accurate transcription, but I think this poem is better to hear than to read, anyway, so I encourage poetry lovers to listen to Anis Mojgani’s performance of “Shake The Dust” here. Incidentally, a clip of this poem is featured in Mat Kearney‘s new song “Heartbreak Dreamer” from his new album “Just Kids.”
