You and I unselfed, will be together, indifferent to idle speculation, you and I. The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar as we laugh together, you and I. In one form upon this earth, and in another form in a timeless sweet land.”

“A Moment of Joy"
The ruling global elites
are holding their breath in anticipation of
who may be the first to start a nuclear war!
The wealthy and the stock market traders
are fearfully watching the fluctuation in the stock prices…
Writers, media pundits, and academics
on the payroll of power and authority
are worried about a potential revolution
that may put an end to the powers in place,
and consequently to their existence!
Doctors, engineers, and other professionals
are all alarmed and watching the job market
in fear of losing their cushy jobs!
Only the waitress at the nearby restaurant
is experiencing a moment of joy
for the generous tip she just received
from the last customer tonight!
[Original poem published in Arabic on October 30,2023 at ahewar.org]”

“A moment’s reflection shows that women, their work, their concerns and innovations are at the core of this more accurate understanding of civilization. As we saw in earlier chapters, tracing the place of women in societies without writing often means using clues left, quite literally, in the fabric of material culture, such as painted ceramics that mimic both textile designs and female bodies in their forms and elaborate decorative structures. To take just two examples, it’s hard to believe that the kind of complex mathematical knowledge displayed in early Mesopotamian cuneiform documents or in the layout of Peru’s Chavín temples sprang fully formed from the mind of a male scribe or sculptor, like Athena from the head of Zeus. Far more likely, these represent knowledge accumulated in earlier times through concrete practices such as the solid geometry and applied calculus of weaving or beadwork. What until now has passed for ‘civilization’ might in fact be nothing more than a gendered appropriation – by men, etching their claims in stone – of some earlier system of knowledge that had women at its centre.”
