“EXHAUSTED
I want a sleep permit,
forgiveness to rest for hours,

the light straw of a small dream.

was the deep sleep of the species,
the grace of a state.
Seed.
Much more than roots.”

“Exhaustion and exasperation are frequently the handmaidens of legislative decision.”
“Exhaustion had become a bright, shining star, and now, now, now, in the beating of her heart, it wasn't even exhaustion. It became something more exalted and debased and she felt as if she was floating over it, and all she wanted was to sleep for a million years, but she could not.”
“Exhaustion has a way of parting the veils between men, not so much because the effort of censoring their words exceeds them, but because weariness is the foe of volatility. Oft times insults that would pierce the wakeful simply thud against the sleepless and fatigued.”

“Exhaustion
Salima sat in the fancy hotel room
In the evening time.
Here she is again in another foreign city,
Attending a conference discussing “human rights”.
Her eyes roamed the room.
She suddenly felt a severe chill in her body.
She suddenly realized that she is exhausted,
But her exhaustion is not that of one day,
It was one of a lifetime!
It fell upon her abruptly.
The thoughts of the bygone years
Nested in her head,
Were suddenly awoken.
One thought after another.
She realized at that moment
That she is tired of responding to
The same absurd questions
About her origins
Her ethnicity,
Her religion,
Her hobbies,
Her favorite foods,
Her education background,
Her age,
And her occupation.
Questions asked frequently by people who don’t care.
She suddenly realized
That throughout her life,
She never found a friend who could really understand.
The evening was about to draw its dark curtains.
She remembered that ever since she was a child,
She had been hiding her favorite words and writings
In notebooks that nobody will read.
She has been murmuring her favorite tunes,
In places where nobody could hear her.
The evening was about to draw its dark curtains.
She realized that her true thoughts and feelings
Lived nowhere expect inside of her head,
And there they will most likely die.
Her head had become like a prison for her thoughts.
The evening was about to draw its dark curtains.
She suddenly realized
That she had wasted so many years of her life
Looking for someone who might understand.
And each time she thought she had found one,
She found herself in yet another prison.
She looked through the window of the fancy hotel room
And saw that the darkness had covered the entire city.

“Exhaustion set into my limbs, and sorrow ravished my soul.”
“Exhaustion was pressing upon and overpowering her. "Good-by--because I love you." He did not know; he did not understand. He would never understand. Perhaps Doctor Mandelet would have understood if she had seen him--but it was too late; the shore was far behind her, and her strength was gone. She looked into the distance, and the old terror flamed up for an instant, then sank again.”

“Exile from society allows person to disengage from meaningless activities and develop conscious awareness. A person’s courageous struggle to eliminate the trepidation of social exile produces insights into what it means to be human. We can displace emotional disquiet by living a heightened state of existence. How a person’s resolves the tremendous anxiety and dizziness that impetus comes from contemplating the inevitability of death, human freedom of choice, the moral responsibilities attendant to living in a selected manner, existential isolation, and the possibility of nothingness establishes a governing philosophical framework. A person must not rue ouster from society because release from moral and societal constraints spurs learning and advanced consciousness.”

Her dance, like her people before her, adapted to the contours of her new land.”
