be but a harbour for good things,

let them rest in your deepest self

when they happen to land upon your shores

and call it home -

even if only for a little while.

//

be but soil for good things,

let the waters break you up

and make their way down to the roots,

and they will grow -

to be woven deep into your loves.

//

be but earth.

be broken up.

be thrown around.

be watered and

be warmed by heavenly light.

and good things will grow,

through no fault of your own.

//

be but earth.

if only i could see

what's right there;

just around the corner.

from "A" to "Becoming"

come, my love

let's hop onto a bus

and travel from

"A"

to

"Becoming";

from here

and there and

back again -

because the journey is

the destination, my love

let's become.

What is the language using us for? It uses us all and in its dark Of dark actions selections differ. I am not making a fool of myself For you. What I am making is A place for language in my life Which I want to be a real place Seeing I have to put up with it Anyhow. What are Communication’s Mistakes in the magic medium doing To us? It matters only in So far as we want to be telling Each other alive about each other Alive. I want to be able to speak And sing and make my soul occur In front of the best and be respected For that and even be understood By the ones I like who are dead. I would like to speak in front Of myself with all my ears alive And find out what it is I want.

W.S. Graham, What is the Language Using Us For?

“Abundance matters... But natural history - and its offspring, the biological sciences - has been a discipline based on scarcity. Nature, including human nature, has been theorised and constructed on the basis of scarcity and competition. Moreover, our nature has been theorised and developed through the construction of life science in and for capitalism and patriarchy.”

Donna Haraway, "Simians, Cyborgs, and Women: The Reinvention of Nature"

a subtle twist of the neck,

a slight deviation from the usual,

and look! -

perspective changes everything.

So, tell me -

what exactly does one write / blog / create / say / do

after a weekend like this?

It's quickly beginning to border on the cliché, but

وهلّأ لوين ؟ - - [ where do we go now? ]

...salvage?

...redeem?

...rebuild?

...ignore?

...forget?

...erase?

...escape?

...resist?

...detest?

...fight?

...mourn?

...march? I really don't know -

so, tell me.

I will be damned

I don’t trust you with my heart anymore. Nor do i trust myself with loving you. Even if i pack my bags and head out to leave, you will still rip me from the inside. So be it. Take me. Take me as I am. Destroy me down, leave me to ashes. And then, i will be damned if you find a heart to love you.

Beirut, how we love you (r abuse)

Beirut, our abusive lover -

our love of abuse,

your relentless abuse of our relentless, senseless love;

our loving abuse -

Beirut, I love you

r abuse.
