tango : 2.02 — Im Traum sitze ich mit einem alten Mann an einem Tisch. Große Hitze auch im Schatten, den Salzbäume spenden. Wir trinken Kaffee und Wasser, das süß ist wie Honig. Der alte Mann trägt kakifarbene Shorts, seine Haut ist dunkel, gebrannt wie Kaffee, hellgrüne Augen. Eine Erscheinung, zahnlos, die nicht spricht, Haut und Knochen, aber ein Wesen von enormer Ausdauer. Ich höre, der alte Mann soll seit Jahren bereits vor diesem Tisch sitzen, ohne je aufgestanden zu sein. Papiere liegen auf dem Tisch und auf dem Boden. Sie sind beschriftet, kaum leserliche Zeichen. Vor dem Mann ruht ein kleines, schwer atmendes Notebook. Einmal blickt er auf den Bildschirm seiner Maschine, dann wieder auf ein Blatt Papier, das vor ihm liegt, und schreibt. Ameisen von Metall irren im Sand herum. Es gibt keinen Ton im Traum, wenn ich spreche, vernehme ich weder Gedanken noch Stimme. – stop

nordpol : 23.56 — Kairo. Mittwoch. Schlaflos im abgedunkelten Zimmer. Südliches Mittagstundenlicht. Drei Monitore auf dem Sofa, ein Fernsehbildschirm, ein Telefon. Beobachte den Tag über aus großer Entfernung Spuren eines menschlichen Infernos. Kommentatoren in englischer und arabischer Sprache. Das Geräusch der Schüsse hell. Loops, die immer wieder die selben grauenvollen Bilder zeigen.

Reprots on clashes by #Rabaa pro Morsy sit-in resulting in 3 dead and many injured (so far), seems like Sisi’s mandate is in effect.

I live in #NasrCity close to #Rabaa and I can hear the sound of the ambulances there
/ Gigi Ibrahim @Gsquare86 13h
@MowSamy the question is how did these weapons get there in the first place?

It’s a bit ironic that the tear gas being fired at Pro-Morsy protesters was probably shipped/delivered under Morsy to be used against us
/ Gigi Ibrahim @Gsquare86 11h
It is also ironic to read tweets coming from #Rabaa abt how horrible the tear gas is,simply cuz it has been a while since MB have smelled it

nachtstimme
india : 2.58 — Das Stimmgeräusch in meinem Kopf. Ob sich der Klang meiner denkenden Stimme mit der verstreichenden Lebenszeit veränderte? Habe ich als Kind mittels der Stimme eines Kindes gedacht? — Ich werde für diese Fragen vielleicht nie eine Antwort finden. Es ist zu spät. Aber ich könnte einem Kind erklären, was ich herauszufinden wünsche. Das Kind würde mich vielleicht mit einem vorsichtigen Lächeln betrachten, würde seine Augen schließen und ein paar Sätze sprechen im Kopf. Ist es einem menschlichen Wesen überhaupt möglich, die eigene denkende Stimme, die Stimme des Gehirnes, aufzubewahren, sich an sie zu erinnern, sie zu vergleichen? — Eine warme Nacht. Falter kommen zum Sterben herein. Und Marienkäfer, wieder ein gutes Dutzend. Diese Käfer sind merkwürdige Wesen. Ich kenne sie, solange ich denken kann. Sie wandern an der Zimmerdecke. Das Licht meiner Lampions scheint ihnen zu gefallen, als ob sie von diesem Licht zehren könnten. Sobald es dunkel geworden ist, wenn sie schlafen oder dämmern, fallen sie zu Boden, als ob es im Dunkel nicht möglich wäre, rechtzeitig die Flügel zu öffnen. — Gigi Ibrahim, Aktivistin, twittert aus Kairo: Everytime someone say „30 June revolution“ or „army and people one hand“ I die a little inside. — stop

india : 5.45 — Bei leichtem Regen gestern im Park einen älteren Herrn beobachtet. Er arbeitete an einem Buch, das ich zunächst nicht bemerkte, weil der Herr auf einer Bank saß im Schatten eines Regenschirmes. Als ich neben ihm Platz genommen hatte, konnte ich erkennen, wie der Mann tatsächlich Zeichen in einem Buch notierte, das nicht größer gewesen war als eine Streichholzschachtel. Neben ihm lag ein weiteres Buch, Philip Roths Roman Everyman. Der Mann schien das eine Buch handschriftlich in das andere Buch zu übertragen. Er notierte mit einem Bleistift, den er nach jedem geschriebenen Zeichen spitzte. Rotkehlchen hüpften zu seinen Füßen herum, pickten das leichte, hauchdünne Holz, das aus der Spitzmaschine fiel, vom Boden und trugen es fort ins nahe Unterholz. Ein Vergrößerungsglas, eine Lupe, klemmte im linken Auge des Herrn, deshalb vermutlich machte er den Eindruck, Schmerzen zu haben. Manchmal biss er sich auf die Zunge. Wenn ich mich nicht irre, dann hatte der Mann bereits etwa 100 Seiten des Romanes transferiert. Ich sah ihm bald eine Stunde zu, ohne ein Wort mit ihm zu wechseln. Friedlichste Stimmung. Auf dem See draußen hüpften Karpfen aus dem Wasser, schwere Körper. Ein paar Ameisen trieben auf einem Blatt an uns vorbei. Ich hätte mich gerne unterhalten, weil mir in den vergangenen Tagen unheimlich zumute gewesen ist, während ich Fernsehbilder aus der Stadt Boston beobachtete. Der alte, schreibende Mann aber war so vertieft in seine Arbeit, dass er meine Gegenwart schnell vergessen zu haben schien. Ich stellte mir vor, dass er in dieser Arbeit gefangen oder geborgen, vielleicht überhaupt nicht wahrgenommen hatte, was in Boston geschehen war. Vielleicht wusste er nicht einmal vom Krieg in Syrien oder von der Entdeckung des Higgs-Teilchens. Als es dunkel wurde, setzte sich der alte Mann eine Stirnlampe auf den Kopf. Für einen Moment leuchtete er mir ins Gesicht, um sofort in seiner Arbeit fortzufahren. — stop
