Surface Earth

Surface Earth, the expansion of humanity via the virtual earth. Digging through the levels of each moment, seen and unseen, recognized or unacknowledged, this is a quest to move beyond the surface.

The Girls of Riyadh

Tonight, I read slowly, something that those who know me well, know happens too infrequently.

I read the voice of a young woman, and am struck by something she felt worthy to be placed among the pages. I have not referenced and cross-referenced, I simply put this here for a note of familiarity, The Girls of Riyadh, by Rajaa Alsanea, pp. 73-74):

Rid yourself of woe and tears

Instead of crying years and years

Oh You who’ve wept the traitor man

Weep on today, if you well can.

But watch that no one sees tears fall

For such will please the traitors all.
