Afrasianet - Dr. Zakaria Shahin - The man who wasn’t there

so that we do not give in to the authority of delirium… when the wound opens its doors...
And the dream is excluded with the collision of the seasons...
The sphericality of the earth, embodied in time and space…
And in every movement of the camps that formed despite the long distances…
Nature has woven its threads between the sea and the camp.. they are the refugee camps.
A field that grows in all directions...!
