English Below :

J’aimerais que tu partages avec moi ce que tu ressens
J’aimerais que tu partages avec moi ce que tu aimes
J’aimerais que tu partages ce que tu as appris...
J‘ aimerais que tu partages avec moi autre choses que ce que tu crois que j’aime,
Autre chose que ce que tu crois que je suis.
Simplement parce que c’est de ta grandeur que je grandis.

I'd like you to share with me what you feel
I'd like you to share with me what you love
I'd like you to share with me what you've learned
I'd like you to share with me other things than what you think I like
Other than what you think I am.
Simply because it's from your greatness that I grow.

In the spiritual dimension,
one cannot produce a masterpiece
—until they become one.

It's always a little infuriating how slow bodies of discourse are to admit needed changes. In this case, the evidence in favor of Enheduanna seems awfully clear.

The Little Boy and the Old Man

Said the little boy, "Sometimes I drop my spoon."
Said the old man, "I do that too."
The little boy whispered, "I wet my pants."
"I do that too," laughed the little old man.
Said the little boy, "I often cry."
The old man nodded, "So do I."
"But worst of all," said the boy, "it seems
Grown-ups don't pay attention to me."
And he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand.
"I know what you mean," said the little old man.

i Have Come To Know


Photo by Fabien Bazanegue on Unsplash
i have known love

but only from the inside

from the inside, giving out

not even from the inside, looking out

for what I saw

was not love.

i thought it was

until a moment

when I saw what it was

was love, but

not the giving out kind

and then, i came to know

that some live without love

they do not need it

and that maybe all we ever do

is live with the need for love

we dream of it

that it is in front of us

it helps us sleep, until

we come to see

then it prevents us from sleep

Once, i came to know

then chose

that knowing

and breathing while knowing

requires neither believing

in things like trust

in not being hurt by it

in democracy or freedom

in being who I want

but it requires living who I want

regardless of all that may come
