Sleep Forever ||
Sleep Forever: That the annihilation will reach you to the stage of wrapping yourself in the patterned quilt… like a beautiful cocoon… you will become a butterfly flying to the sky to meet God… there at the highest station… you will complain to Him about what mankind has committed… you belong to God and to Him you will return.
Your intricately patterned blanket
… is part of your destiny… it keeps you warm in the cold… it protects you from shrapnel… and it could even become your shroud… if a shell or missile strikes you. Your sleep, your dreams, your fears, and your end will all be part of the same scene… so don’t be fooled by the beauty of these patterns… because they represent a new form of annihilation.
Deleted from the civil registry
The final scene of the heroes of a movie that the whole world has watched, they played their roles with all efficiency according to the desires of the directors and scriptwriters. Every day, a hundred heroes leave the scene, most of them brilliant children, and a hundred more take their place, and the scenes continue until the desires of the devils are satisfied.
Irregular lineup
It is the last glimpse of families being erased from the civil registry. A mother with her child on top of her body, two brothers, a grandfather with his children, all his grandchildren, and an infant.
From the memory of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah. Gaza Strip 2024.
