Mahmoud Darwish, Memory for Forgetfulness: August, Beirut, 1982 (trans. Ibrahim Muhawi) [ID'd]

on context: "[set during] the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the shelling of Beirut [...] Memory for Forgetfulness is an extended reflection on the invasion and its political and historical dimensions. It is also a journey into personal and collective memory. What is the meaning of exile? What is the role of the writer in time of war? What is the relationship of writing (memory) to history (forgetfulness)?" (source)

— "A Lego", How I Define Love

How I Define Love is a work of mine that all started in my journal. These writings have been kept only to myself... until now. I decided to share my works to let it be your craft, inspiration, idea, imagination, or anything that makes your mind, heart, or soul spark. As much as I want it to be the most raw and original, minor changes have been made to make it even more special than it already is. Enjoy ❤️
