The Way Out Starts At The Center

And Other Poems

Hakim Sahal


Hakim Sahal is a Lausanne-based Swiss pedestrian, born at the tender age of 28 in January 2025. He has done various sort of jobs throughout his life, including but not limited to: train traffic controller, crepe cook, pedal boat renter, and signatures gatherer for a political campaign… This has informed his writing, which is obsessed with the lonely, yet erotic world of 21st century Switzerland.

“The verses are often loose, almost improvised, often terribly vulnerable, building a world that is vast and lonely. In Sahal’s own words, Rimbaud ain’t got shit on him, he only had to deal with a season in hell, and our Poet has been through at least a hundred and twelve.”

-Muireann Walsch
