While composing instrumental music is Salim Ghazi Saeedi's heavenly pleasure, Salim calls his poetic works, the inferno of words: "I only write poems in moments of extreme despair, fear and paralysis... I do not find pleasure in language and this is why I have chosen instrumental music as a way of expression. But you know... in such moments I am unable to do anything else and so I reluctantly express myself by inferno of words." The Book of Unsay (2017) and At the Altar of Lord Virus (2021) are among Salim's published poetry collections.
