Friday Mornings in Cairo

(Brilliant!
a great write, reaching beyond
the toxic propaganda battle lines
to depict the humane reality, veiled
behind agendas and divisive politics..
thank you for sharing, dear Poet)..
without \'the east\'
(we must be careful of our reliance
on western tailored history\'s
maps, dates and terms)
civilisation
would have missed out
on algebra
on algorithm
on Aristotle,
how about functioning toilets
whilst the west\'s, waste
was still being dug outhouses
or
\'select\' Egyptians being buried
along with their flat packed warships
(before sweden ever had an ikea, idea)
while the west was making a breakthrough with its river boats,
and the list goes on...

A rich painting of a city I know nothing about.. Almost, however felt line I\'d been there
Don\'t move along too quickly... I\'d like more, if you don\'t mind...
