Let me tell about the winds

Let me tell you about winds

There is a, a whirlwind from southern Morocco,

the Aajej,
against which the Fellahin
defend themselves with knives.
And there is a,
a Ghibli from Tunis.
Which rolls and rolls
and rolls and produces a...
a rather strange nervous condition.
And then there is the,
the Harmatten,
a red wind, which mariners called
"a sea of darkness."
And red sand
from this wind...
has flown as far as
the south coast of England,
apparently
producing...
showers so dense that they were
mistaken for blood.
a wind, the Simoon,
which a nation thought
was so evil,
they declared war on it
and marched out against it.
In full battle dress.
Their swords raised.
