“عارف لما تشوف الصبح بيطلع .. و انت قاعد
لما تلاقى قلبك بيدق وانت بارد
أو تنام و انت شارد .. و تجرى وانت واقف .. و تبكى وانت ساكت
عارف لما عينيك تشوف جوه ناس .. و تحس بإحساس
عارف لما تبقى كل حاجا غلط صح .. و كل حلال حرام
المية تبقى نار و النار تبقى مطر
عارف لما تسكت و جواك مليان كلام
و تتكلم وانت مش طايق الكلام
تشوف الكدب من العينين باظظ
وإن اتكلمت هاتبقى عينيك بتشوف مش زى مانت باصص
تمشى مش زى مانت رايح
تتمنى تموت و انت عايش
او تعيش بس مش على الهامش
لما تحس انك نصين لحاجة واحدة بس مش بتوع بعض
نص برق و التانى رعد”
― أحمد حلمي, 28 حرف

“The fact that he does not tell me the truth all the time makes me not sure of his truth at certain times, and then I work to figure out for myself if what he is telling me is the truth or not, and sometimes I can figure out that it's not the truth and sometimes I don't know and never know, and sometimes just because he says it to me over and over again I am convinced it is the truth because I don't believe he would repeat a lie so often. Maybe the truth does not matter, but I want to know it if only so that I can come to some conclusions about such questions as: whether he is angry at me or not; if he is, then how angry; whether he still loves her or not; if he does, then how much; whether he loves me or not; how much; how capable he is of deceiving me in the act and after the act in the telling.”
― Lydia Davis, Break It Down
