Just before the Arab Spring took off I was in Egypt, on holidays.
Now, after all that happened, I find there is a subtle connection
between this poem
and the pictures I took relating to the present ...
drylands by Yahia Lababidi
Tell me, have you found a sea
deep enough to swim in
deep enough to drown in
waters to engage you
distract you, keep you
from crossing to the other shore?
deep enough to swim in
deep enough to drown in
waters to engage you
distract you, keep you
from crossing to the other shore?
