Redeeming my
collection of plundered years, who hasn’t one? I hear a child babbling through
the window of time, with words of innocence and wisdom. Those same words that
were said once, they were directed to someone like me, if not me. There have
been hands covering my ears and eyes, shaping a headdress of inconvenience and
ignorance. I admit that the compulsion to express was emotional and kept my
mouth full of knickknacks. I am guilty of committing gluttony on the move.
Binging the pace with meaningless stuff made the weight heavy on my shoulders
with something which nature was flighty and casual. The swings are rocking at fairyland; the
scents of strange flowers have taken me out of the coma to put me in a state of
trance. Where do they come from? Who is purging thoughts of incomprehensible
beauty from the high branches to the bottom of the underworld? There are baskets full fruit and worms at my
doorstep, my smile can illuminate the world just because I understand both are
my friends. I shout to myself crossing the corridors from birth; it is not like
before when I simply would have gotten scared, the sweet nectar has been
delivered to destination right on time, like I didn’t know it always was. It
just only the angle from with the picture is taken, the aperture of the
observing eye, the approval of the option itself. Yes, I am exhibiting the collected moths like
epidermal cells, layers covering layers that are waiting to be shed, disguising
new conceptions like if they wouldn’t be me. Footprints on the mud, dried but the absence
of attention to the detail, are telling a story, the same as the lines on your
face. And I kiss those, traces of decay and conquer, those signs that many
others may see them as samples of outmost shame. Let’s set off towards our own Babylonian
garden, holding hands a cradle hold the just delivered, writing as we move a
legacy of sunny autumn mornings bathing on ochre tonalities. There is an intricate
melody I have waved along the years to discover that after all simplicity was given
for a reason, and that had the same meaning back them in the beginning as it has
now in the middle and it will have at the end to start all over again… b_Nour
