Quotes by Joyce Mansour (?)

“For I must wander
On the deep sea bed
Showering pearls on dead men
Gathering shells
And sweeping the shadows of passing boats
With my falling hair
Across the sliding sands into the mouth of hell”
― Joyce Mansour, Torn Apart

“الأسوار تعلو
ـــــــــــ
رحماك يا رب آبائنا، يا إلهنا نحن الذين حلّت بنا اللعنات
أسوار اليأس القاتمة تحاصر رؤوسنا، سماواتنا، بيوتنا
إدرأ عنّا حنق الحاسدين
أُعف عنَّا، أنت يا من تشهد محنتنا
إِنس ظنوننا، ما قدّمت أيدينا، خطايانا
إمنحنا الرجاء حتى وإن لم يعد هناك رجاء”
― Joyce Mansour, افتح أبواب الليل

“ثمّة امرأةٌ جالسة أمام مائدةٍ مكسورة
والموتُ يأكلُ أحشاءها.
لا شئ في الدولاب.
متعبةٌ من كل شئٍ حتى من ذكرياتها
تنتظر والنافذة مفتوحة
الضوءَ ذا الألف وجه:
الجنون.”
― Joyce Mansour, رغباتنا أمس أحلامك غدًا
