Out of Silence: Readings from the Afghan Women's Writing Project

Our puppy Lola rescued this little munchkin, as it was caught in a net. Gosh, what a tiny tinsy mousie!

A group of faculty and students "marched" from the steps of Old Main to the Sandburg Birthplace historical site, where the faculty shared readings as everyone gathered near Rememberance Rock on Thursday, April 27, 2023.

And you did love me, did you, for a while,

Because I was your foolish witty child.

I’m sure you did, you once said that my smile

Was there to brighten everything that smiled.

 

What do you have right now is love for hate,

Or hate for love: their weight is on my scale

The same light load - I don’t recriminate -

Of the wool-winder in the fairy tale.

 

When Princess’ finger was bitten by the spine

She did not cry: she fell into a sleep.

She slept and slept: was put into a shrine.

When you wake up abruptly, then you weep.

 

Like the Princess I woke up: my jail was razed in shards.

I broke the walls while sleeping. My skin is still all scarred.

Out of Silence: Readings from the Afghan Women's Writing Project

This is the reason why we kissed, we played

And now I cannot look you in the eye:

We were the actors in a masquerade

 

And fled the stage, the people high and dry.

You wore the cape and I a full white gown

And now I cannot look you in the eye:

 

Were we good players? Now, don’t let me down:

We had an audience, cheering us. They knew

You wore the cape and I a full white gown

 

But sometimes we believed it was all true

- The rehearsing, the face, the clothes of gold.

We had an audience, cheering us. They knew

 

That what they saw was real and lo, behold

We set the arena while we played the stage

- The rehearsing, the face, the clothes of gold.

 

We were the lions and we were the cage:

This is the reason why we kissed, we played.

We set the arena while we played the stage

We were the actors in a masquerade.

 

(Terzanelle by SiRiChandra)

betrayal

truth and lies

heartes and liars

By Ryan Johnston-

 

Up hill, and so distant

The flags half mast

They’re sailing in the wind, like waving hands

Overfilled, yet so vacant

The scene above

Cast over me, like a tragedy

Visceral, and so dreamy

The purple clouds

And this black skyline, that I’m lying in

 

Breathe in, and let it go

But I’m still here

Locked up in your chest,

Like a souvenir

 

So far, from all we’ve been

Distance me, from everyone,

And everything

I’m constricting you again

 

Disappear, from these years

Away from everyone

And everything

I’m constricting you again

 

Move on, go away

And did you ever think

All the weightless things

Could be so heavy?

Move on, get away

I didn’t ever think

I would be blinded

By what I couldn’t see

 

Up hill, and so distant

The flags half mast

I’m sailing in the wind

They wave their hands

But I’m somewhere else

You were not loved, and what you show is hatred,

Your cold blue anger, and the reddest rage.

Nobody taught you how. You could not learn

The way. Your mask is cracking.

 

Your cold blue anger, and the reddest rage

Seep through the rupture, oozing from your smile

The way your mask is cracking

Exposes tender skin to the cold air.

 

Seep through the rupture, oozing from your smile

In rivulets your tears. Two colours bleed,

Exposing tender skin to the cold air

And make you angrier, mingling red and blue

 

In rivulets. Your tears (two colours) bleed

Tinting your chest with purple sticky stains

And make you angrier, mingling red and blue

Over your heart in a threatening cloud.

 

Tinting your chest with purple sticky stains

You cross your hands and rub it

Over your heart in a threatening cloud.

You were not loved, and what you show is hatred.

We launched the Make My Day diary, a June-to-June Refugee Week diary written by young people who have recently arrived in the UK. The project and event were supported by John Lyon’s Charity, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Arts Council England.

 

On 20th June we held a celebratory event at the Tricylce Theatre for all those who had taken part in the event.
