Doors To Dream Worlds

Are they just Pages, texts, words? Or are they something else?

That happiness you buy,
That does not make you think twice.
A apprehensive emotion overwhelms you, as you realize,
 You are collapsing once more into that lockup,
 That never lets you wake up.
Just like a drug, it hooks you.
Once you did it, there is no way out.
Yet, you are still eager for more.

That rushed feeling that wraps you around,
 Making your skin shiver,
 Sensing, as you slowly open it
 The faintest whisper of a kiss.
 Promising within, a new adventure.

That time when reality is shot down,
And you can escape without coming back.
 As you turn one over, you sense that anxious awareness eating your inside body.
That curiosity that tingles under your skin,
Never letting you be. Refusing to stop,
 Demanding for one more.
Just one more to explore.

As you enter that magical world
You open a life
 Hearing  distinct cries
 Bashful laughs,
And Tentative Shouts


Books are not just words,
But doors to dreams worlds.

Querer, pero no poder.

No siempre “Querer es poder”, No siempre se hace lo que se quiere hacer. No siempre se tiene lo que se quiere tener. No siempre se siente lo que se quiere sentir.

Quiero sentir eso, volver a eso, pero no puedo. Me lo prohíben. Me lo prohíbo. Estoy perdido. No se que putas hacer.

Half Human, Half Universe...

There is a universe within her, That no one ever dares to probe; With such deep misty corners, That consume you with her wanderlust. The shooting stars prowling inside her, Reflect her infinite hopes; That with her bold ambition, Persues without fall. She is mad and she is fire. Her soul burns with deep desires. She wants everything and settles for nothing; With her intense passion for exotic places and minds. A glitch within human specie she is; She scares people because she is whole all by herself, And with her blissful insanity, She has the power to conquer the world.

Personal Response to "Woman at point zero" by, El Saadawi

“ Slavery ”, “ humiliating ”, “ abusing ”, “ filthy ”, “ degrading ”, “ easy way out” . All these stigmas are used when describing a prostitute, yet it is all this that grants Firdaus utter freedom. This novel uncovers the naked truth of what it means to be a woman in an egyptian patriarchal society in the early 1980’s. In the world that Firdaus knows, women exist to serve men, women belong to men, women reside in the power of the hands of men. Female humans are objects, possessions, slaves and pleasure machines; in Firdaus society “all women are prostitutes of one kind or another” . She accepts the crude reality of what women are; arguing that “men force women to sell their bodies at a price, and that the lowest paid body is that of a wife”  Wives are maltreated prostitutes who trade their sexual service for regular subsistence, housing and support of their offspring. Prostitutes are autonomous prostitutes who trade their sexual service for freedom. In the end however, Firdaus co...
