The witches of the bad consciousness of the Other, like Click, Chris et al, jump like flies to honey when they feel there is a space where to dance the macabre dance of "the Other is depressed". Thanks to Nietzsche we know they represent the temptation of our cowardice: to feel sorry. But we are disciples of Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish. In his 3rd Psalm, he says: On the day when my words
were earth...
I was a friend to stalks of wheat.
***
On the day when my words
were wrath
I was a friend to chains.
***
On the day when my words
were stones
I was a friend to streams.
***
On the day when my words
were a rebellion
I was a friend to earthquakes.
***
On the day when my words
were bitter apples
I was a friend to the optimist.
***
But when my words became
honey...
flies covered
my lips!... |
