À propos :
Dreams And An Essay / Poetic Fragments©: est un travail assidu de poésie bilingue et de dessins qui plongent dans les profondeurs des rêves et de l'inconscient de l'auteure. La recherche en phonétique est longue et attentionnée et le sens y est serré. Cette oeuvre est le premier travail publié de l'artiste, elle transparait comme une histoire de sa révolte, ses amours, son humanité et son soucis de la nature et de sa préservation.
Porcelaine castles,
Crystal Made
Everything is fragile, sharp,
Everything is handmade.
City is lighten up
But the sun hides.
As the night goes down dark,
The planet Rides.
Fall on tales
Love is for free
Use your feet
Wilderness is where we must be.
The river meets the sea
Dead and Alive
Arousing hills, arousing highs
Cunts, dicks and thighs.
Fire is the special guest
The ultimate mate, the sincerest friend.
The kiss of Life
The kiss of Death.
We are One
We are apart
No whisper
Total abandon
Wander
Blink
Touch
Taste
See
Want
Need
Love
Urges
Protection
Care
Love
And affection.
Love
Love
Love
Lost in reflection
Time
Time
Time
Grabbing our attention :
Mate! Mate! Mate !
Before it’s over
Shame shame shame
You’re getting smaller !
Name ! Name! Name!
You have no shelter.
Hate hate hate
With a smile
You know it’s a killer.
Rage! rage ! Rage !
Game! Game! Game!
Will bury you under.
Win! Win! Win!
Call it a miracle.
Hide! Hide! Hide!
Calling it a sacrifice.
To who ?
Your fears.
We cover our bodies
Bury our souls
Call it a lost dream.
Sacrifice our happiness,
Hide our real minds,
Behind chains and Time,
Judgment and crime.
We were all killers
We were all healers.
We are all in a pain
That bites us back in the flame.
We’ve fought each other for decades.
We are threatened to blow at any second
Are we ready to stop ?
Take a look at each other’s hands.
After growing up in country that’s been shot to explosers and rape
Nicotine and beauty affaires
Daydreams and awakened nightmares.
I sit and wonder
While rulers are feasting of blood and cocaine
While hearts explode between minefields and raves,
And as rebels still ride in the horse’s way
Leading gypsies
Soothing the way
Love is freedom
Love is still undone
Come as the new sun
Love will over come.
We people have the power
And still have the power
To take back paradise
To take back the moment,
The kingdom,
Love.
Our paradise is Now. […].
Sara Daher, Carnet de Voyage, Liban, 2023.
For today
The price to pay,
Near or away
High or low
Know That you must go
Down below
Through small doors
In small worlds.
Turn the haze on
The lights low,
It’s Time to choose.
To know
But never enough to go.
To keep forward
But to keep aware.
In the conscious Forest
In the Beast of Game
The silky sands must be near.
S.D, Acrylique sur A4, Beyrouth, 2015.
« Hopes, illusion and fears
Welcome to all your dreams!
Would you trade me your soul?
Don’t worry it’s not luck just gold !
You’re on the other side of the road
Playing as a vender of red silks and gold
No buyers of course
The buyer is you.
But you already know that don’t you?
« Love is for sale »
Come on play the game
In this desert everybody died and went insane ».
Wake up !
Flip the coin !
See the truth to it’s core
War
A hall of mirrors
Soldiers protecting the unspoken word
Birds are shot to earth
Harmony broken
It’s the Symphony of hurt.
Lovers break the sword
And kill breaking it.
Wolves howl
And the night shoots it’s stars to the ground.
A tree weeps
Nobody wins and everybody gets hurt
A tree weeps
Nobody wins and everybody gets hurt.
No one laughs and no one hears
The jokes flying from the madman’ s mouth
He said he lived through
He haven’t died and he haven’t birthed.
He has a beard,
He’s a thousand year old snake
Who swam across seas
Of freedom and burning trees […].
