The document is a poem by A.U. Saleem addressing someone who is feeling depressed, trapped, or on the edge of a precipice.

1. Allora sei...
Se per te il termine “regno"
non ha niente a che vedere
con la politica...
Se per te “Torre di Guardia” non
è un luogo di avvistamento
strategico in campo bellico...
2. Se passi tre o più giorni in uno stadio senza
vedere un pallone o una lattina di birra…
Se sai quando cade ogni anno il 14 Nisan nel
calendario giudaico, ma frequentemente ti
dimentichi il giorno del tuo compleanno…
3. Se hai un lavoro umile e comunque hai 5 vestiti…
Se non ti sembra niente di strano che i tuoi amici passino da casa tua
solo per usare il bagno…..
4. Se ti senti istintivamente spinto
a bussare a tutte le porte che incontri...
5. Se non riesci a comprare un paio di scarpe senza fermarti a pensare
quanto saranno comode per la strada sotto 40° C...
Se passi momenti con molti libri di 192 pagine o più, e tutti questi li
confronti con uno solo libro nero conosciuto nel 99% delle lingue, che
spesso consulti per poche righe per pagina...
6. Se non puoi leggere una rivista o qualsiasi altra cosa senza
prendere una penna per sottolinearla...
Se ti sembre normale riferirti a una persona come "uno studio"...
7. Se almeno una volta alla settimana vai in strade dove
non vivi, esponendoti gratuitamente a pioggia o sole,
per aiutare persone che non conosci...
8. Se riesci a rimenere seduto e in silenzio
per ore, mantenendo straordinaria
eleganza e rispetto...
Se tieni in casa tua "riunioni sociali"
invece di "feste", e se al termine
di una di queste "riunioni sociali", casa
tua non è tutta disordinata e a volte hai
più da mangiare di prima...
9. Se vedi ogni giorno il mondo peggiorare
e questo ti emoziona perchè sai che le
cose miglioreranno fra breve...
