Little White Riding Hood - LITTLE WHITE RIDING HOOD As the first sun rays of the day shined upon my leaves, I awoke blithely from my slumber to a white hooded figure pacing through the pastures. As her beauty and grace beamed across the fields, Her billowy-soft voice fluttered in my ears. She stopped along my feet, my steady roots a temporary seat, in hand, her basket and white cotton sheet. Rest for now my dear, For your destination is far from near. The road, is bleak and never quite clear, for sinful figures lurk around here and suddenly they shall appear. Soon, and if not careful, greed and poison shall unfold: a wolf, of charming words but of spirit cold, you’ve yet to know the violence he holds: thy evil creature shows no affinity, hungry for chastity, thirsty for purity. Keep your courage near, distant but not austere, for prudence my dear, prevails above fear. Alas darkness reigns, I feel her weight slowly wane. Her voice, once harmonious decay, now taut and strained. I struggled to scream, but struggled in vain. Deaf to my warnings, anticipating my mourning. I called upon my old friend the wind. But his gust was far too faint as well. She did not foresee the coming hell. As the depth of the woods swallow her whole, I see her cotton coat once as white and pure as her soul: contaminated, coarse, and now reddened by the spills from her fall. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-six-c4e6h-nrbej-r6jy8-t8am9 monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637783512995-9Q0BB6BVQJQ9WD4BLPBH/sale+caresse.jpg poetry - Sale Caresse - SALE CARESSE Un, deux, trois… Je ne te reconnais pas. Toi, figure de l’autre côté du miroir. Sale, crasseuse, malpropre ! Un, deux, trois… Quittez, qu’ je n’ vous vois pas. Rendez-moi ce qui m’appartient. Rendez-moi ma peau lisse. Rendez-moi ma vie. Je ne te reconnais plus, étouffée par cette paresse. Dort tôt, mange bien. Tout ça n’aboutit à rien ! Rendez-moi ma chair parfaite Un, deux, trois… Ça ne te regarde pas, ne t’en mêle pas.

Toute ma vie obligée de vivre avec ce nez ! Répugnant, affreux, J’implore les dieux, M’ayant infligé se sort si odieux. Je n’ose me regarder dans la glace. Et voir ce nez, laid et néfaste. Je ne peux plus porter ce nez dégelasse ! Comment faire ? Comment plaire ? Comment réparer cette bassesse. Des femmes et des femmes ou plutôt des déesses, me regarde de travers, et d’un oeil me rabaisse, Comment faire ? Comment plaire ? Comment s’en sortir de cet enfer ? Affreuse, moche, mauvaise. Ce sont les seuls mots que je semble reconnaître. Des rendez-vous trop chers, Comment faire ? Comment satisfaire ? Votre visage me semble angélique ! Excusez-moi madame, vous êtes ironique ? Je suis simplement victime de ce monde critique. Ces monsieur consommateurs. Allez docteur ! Faite de moi une œuvre. Mon amour chirurgie esthétique ! Enfin une façade plastique, Je me regarde dans la glace : Oh une beauté féerique.

Pourtant, avec chaque souffle, notre sang se fige. Notre sang se refroidit, se glace. Ces crimes mortels s’enracinent dans nos ruelles. Tout s’efface, et s’implante une infamie perpétuelle. Cette abjection qui fait de nous des hypocrites, des lâches. Des monstres propriétaires d’un paradis temporaire. Et voilà on quitte. On descend aux enfers. Au pays enterré d’un amas de cendre infini. Un pays qui revit et sombre de nouveau, asphyxié, paralysé. On descend. On frôle le cadavre d’un port désemparé. Ce corps démantelé, dépourvu de toutes ses extrémités. On descend. Toujours se longs regards froids. Ses regards si silencieux pleins de désarroi. Ce regard écœuré, ce regard ému qui hurle dans le néant. On est tous victimes. On est tous témoins. On est tous coupables. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-six-c4e6h-nrbej-r6jy8-t8am9-leypa monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637783695296-18DFNIZCNDC5NS785262/what+is+beirut.JPG poetry - What is Beirut? - WHAT IS BEIRUT? What is Beirut? Beirut is the beautiful water that flows against your skin when you swim in the Mediterranean Sea. Beirut is the mellow feeling that reassures you, that comforts you. Beirut is the solace the stream provides you. Beirut is the serenity of family that surrounds you. Beirut is the current that lingers, unified, when an obstacle oppresses it. Beirut is the current that diverges when an obstacle oppresses it. Beirut is that constant anticipation. Beirut is the worry, knowing that at any moment, the water may flow cold, and, may only flow colder. Beirut: do I leave the flow? Do I separate myself? Do I willingly leave the warmth that engulfs me? Do I move out of the current and swim in another sea? Beirut do I leave you when you need me to stay? Beirut is the first snowflake of the season. Beirut is the childlike hope you regain so quickly yet unwillingly. Beirut is the excitement, Beirut is the eagerness. Beirut is the amiability and the heat from a fireplace. Beirut, is your first love, the purest form of love, unconditional love. Beirut is your first hug, your first kiss and your first and last tear. And, Beirut is the storm. Beirut is the fret and the panic that seems to endure in the air. Will it pass? Will it destroy everything in its path? Beirut is the afternoons spent by the beach, surrounded by loved ones. Surrounded by love. Beirut is the smell of salt in your hair. The joy, the exhilaration. The adrenaline that rushes through your veins while you jump into the dancing waves. Beirut is the buzzing sea and its dormant strength. Beirut is the dreamy sea dousing its guests. But beware, it is also the crashing wave that knocks you down unexpectedly. The wave that picks you up so effortlessly, as if you are weightless, as if you are meaningless. Beirut is that first cigarette. You need it, you crave it. But it is toxic, it is deadly. Beirut is addictive. Beirut is a conundrum. So, ask me again: what is Beirut? Beirut is complicated. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-five-ntkts monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637782596561-H0C1Y7XQ1VWJPEE03V2L/lete+saisit.JPG poetry - L'Été Saisi - L’ÉTÉ SAISI L’été des nuages terribles, l’été du rose et des lits, l’été des pleurs et des cris, des chants et des rires. L’été saisi. L’été noirci. Ce tourbillon de corruption, De désolation, de dévastation… Nos maisons, nos jours, nos futurs Déchirés. Ces monstres bourreaux, Créateurs de malheurs… Notre résilience, notre espoir, notre flamme Effrités. Notre existence mise de côté. Ma ville qu’un accessoire à leur fortune. Ma ville qui se noie dans la mésaventure. Nos terres, Nos airs, Trempés de turpitude. Toujours, ce lent retour à l’enfer. Toujours cette incertitude. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-four-57j8f monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637781636774-CXPFK7TS99QYUGYDBTRS/l%27allee+des+innocens.jpg poetry - L'Allée Des Innocents - L’ALLÉE DES INNOCENTS Je t’aime Je les hais Je t’aime Je les déteste Je t’aimerai Je le sais Mais maintenant Je te hais. Tes rues me sauvaient, Ton odeur m’abritait. La chaleur que tu nous offrais Nous berçait à jamais. Le rose me manque, Mais pas le rose de cette journée. Tes allées me hantent, Le rouge et le sang, Dominant, culminant, Celui des innocents. Tes cris nourrissent mes insomnies. Je hais la personne que je suis, Inquiète, tourmentée, Affolée, effrayée. J’envie la personne que j’étais. Insouciante dans ma légèreté. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-three-temt3 monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637781226934-K8FFIQ66NJKHROCR7K4V/fausse+promesse.jpg poetry - Fausse Promesses - FAUSSES PROMESSES Les fausses promesses et les mensonges, Les cœurs qui crient et les pensées qui tournent. Je me promène, toujours le cœur lourd. Je l’attends encore, gardien de cet amour. L’auteur de mon bonheur, garant de mon Cœur. Peut-être tu le seras? Ah non ! Tu me quittes déjà ? Je n’en peux plus de cet enfer. Sortez-moi de cette affaire. C’est vrai, je l’aime; Mais il ne m’aime pas. J’implore les dieux, M’ayant infligé se sort si odieux. Je t’en prie ! Aime-moi comme je t’aime. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-two-6zfh7 monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637780480895-0QRPEX6UXP5UO1CLRDM3/beyrouth+mon+amour.png poetry - Beyrouth Mon Amour - BEYROUTH, MON AMOUR Beyrouth, ma ville. Beyrouth où mes souvenirs défilent. Toi qui m’as fait rire, toi qui m’as fait pleurer. Aujourd’hui, je parcours tes ruelles et je te vois, dépourvue de tes couleurs, dépourvue de tes bonheurs. Cet après-midi du 5 août, j’ai découvert une ville que je ne connaissais pas, une ville que, peut-être, mes parents ont connue, mais que moi je n’avais jamais vue. Une ville où l’on ne perçoit pas la différence entre le jour et la nuit, une ville où la journée s’écoule comme celle de la veille, froide et blême. Cette ville n’est pas la mienne. Cette ville ne te ressemble pas, Beyrouth, mon amour. Cette ville n’a aucune soif de vivre, aucun élan vers les joies à venir. Ses artères sont ternies par les années d’abandon. Ses citoyens semblent avoir succombé à leur mauvais sort, et ne connaissent plus aucune allégresse. Tout blanchit et se défait à leurs yeux. Tout s’efface. Après le crépuscule du 4 août, Beyrouth, ton cœur a cessé de battre tel le cœur de tes victimes. Les miraculés, eux non plus, ne sont plus vivants. Toute trace de souffle qui restait dans ta poitrine endolorie s’est subitement évaporée. La musique qui berçait ton âme s’est subitement altérée en sirènes d’ambulance et en cris de mères éplorées. Beyrouth, tu me manques. Ton odeur me manque. L’odeur des samedis matin chez téta et jeddo, l’odeur de « baye3 el ka3ek » et l’odeur de la corniche, me manquent. Beyrouth, tu ne dormais jamais, tu te souviens ? A présent moi je ne dors plus. Mais ce n’est plus pour la même raison. On te quitte Beyrouth, tes amoureux te quittent. Moi aussi je les vois partir, Beyrouth, et ça me fait mal. Mais je resterai. J’attendrai que les battements de ton cœur se déchainent de nouveau, et je resterais. Et comme toi, j’attendrai leur retour, et ensemble, nous regagnerons nos couleurs, nous retrouverons nos odeurs. Beyrouth, mon amour, je t’attends. https://www.aylajabr.com/poetry/project-one-ew52r monthly 0.5 2021-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1637780704438-QWB6YIDKKZ3PK64OMJI3/Ayla+Jabr+-+il+est+toujours+6.08+ici.JPG poetry - Il est toujours 6.08 ici - IL EST TOUJOURS 6 :08 ICI Il est toujours 6 :08 ici. Notre sang coule à jamais, ici. Un an plus tard, c’ est toujours l’ été ici. L’infâme été, L’été des nuages terribles, L’été du rose et des cris. On descend aux enfers ici. Mon pays meurt asphyxié par les cendres ici. Mon pays revit étouffé par les cendres ici. On descend, On erre parmi ce corps démantelé, Ce corps dépourvu de toutes ses extrémités. Et on descend. Toujours ce long regard froid, Toujours ce regard si silencieux, si assourdissant, Ce regard écoeuré qui hurle dans le néant. Tout le monde le regarde, Tout le monde le déchiffre. Le 4 août est une plaie qui ne se soigne pas. On est témoins d’un crime qui ne s’arrête pas. On est victimes de criminels qu’on ne condamne pas. le Liban se noie. Le Liban sombre dans un sommeil éternel. Le Liban, empoisonné par une corruption cruelle, Une corruption qui dessèche les racines de nos cèdres. Le soleil se couche et semble disparaitre Il ne reste qu’un vague halo d’espoir à l’horizon, Un halo étranglé par une nuée de détresse. Il ne reste plus rien ici. Il est encore 6 :08 ici. https://www.aylajabr.com/projects daily 0.75 2021-12-26 https://www.aylajabr.com/projects/photography-exhibition monthly 0.5 2021-12-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/3b5d16c7-5519-47cf-9f60-469c4c94a834/ayla+jabr+%7C+Nana-tomy.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition NANA-TOMY: Close-up shot in Black & White photography. This image symbolizes the passing of time. It is an image of my grandmother's and my hand. The bracelets that seem to link together highlight the strong bond that connect us through love and the passing down of a solid value system. We are separate but united as one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/8897208b-a0ba-48c7-88e3-c795ce9d99a5/ayla+jabr+%7C+Apocalypse.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition APOCALYPSE: Urban scene shot in Black & White. This photograph was taken at the site of the Beirut port blast. The group is running away from the port as if playing, the streets have no cars. It is a discreet reference to the destruction and speaks of the untold. It is only when you look closely that you see the destroyed buildings, the satellites on the TV station cars and the glass shards on the road. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/022cfb22-cac6-4363-b160-6bca81d655d7/ayla+jabr+%7C+Far-aya.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition PEARL: High contrast shot in Black & White taken in Faraya, an area in the mountains of Lebanon. The image highlights the arid nature of the land. The contrast is further accentuated by the curved horizon line. These also become lines of a perspective focusing on the trees at the center of the image. This perspective is again highlighted by the sun ray at the top left corner of the photograph. The duality of the composition: horizon vs perspective, makes it a dynamic image of what would be a static view. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/1784201952796-ZK3L5NSH23546P7ETG7G/ayla%2Bjabr%2B%257C%2BCut%2Boff.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition CUT OFF: Abstract shot taken in Vienna of the freshly cut trees. The contrast in textures and the sharp edge of the tree line as opposed to the blurry softness of the sky gives a reassuring order to the viewer. There is no room for chaos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/7c46b0ba-c0b1-42d4-a515-83dc633c74e6/ayla+jabr+%7C+So-far.JPG projects - Photography Exhibition SO-FAR: High contrast Black & White shot in Sofar, Lebanon. Although taken in 2020, this image wants to take us back to times that passed. The grainy texture along with the traditional dress of the seated group makes the mind wonder. The viewer is lost in time however the iconic pine tree of Lebanon sets the viewer in space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/3f42da7e-8f62-4402-a0bd-f766c2836b7d/ayla+jabr+%7C+Layers+three.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition LAYERS THREE: Close up seascape shot in the North of Lebanon showing the textures of the Lebanese coast. The Mediterranean sea is central to the openness of the Lebanese people. The colors of the green grass blend into the rocks that blend into the water. Although the image depicts rough materials, an overall unspoken feeling of softness flows from the photograph. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/28c8d7bb-4932-4d29-bab0-4fa0d4d767a3/ayla+jabr+%7C+Thawra.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition THAWRA: Close up shot from the Lebanese Independence Day march organized by the people in November 2019 during "Thawra" (i.e. revolution). The day was symbolic in the sense that it united a previously divided people against the corrupt government. This unity is highlighted with the holding of hands of men in civilian clothing that in contrast stand in an army like formation. The people are the army of the nation on November 22, 2019. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/76324ff4-664e-4cc8-8b03-d27a17923ab2/ayla+jabr+%7C+flora+%2B+fauna.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition FLORA + FAUNA: Dramatic high contrast lighting shot of a pink flamingo at the zoo. This photograph uses chiaroscuro to highlight the brightness of the pink color in contrast to its surroundings. The flamingo appears in all its elegance. There is a part of another bird that appears on the right-hand side of the image and tricks the eye of the viewer to see as if a reflection of the central bird. The flamingo seems to be standing in front of a mirror when he is not. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/465b9942-c952-425e-82f2-25d13874c6c2/ayla+jabr+%7C+Shadow+dancing.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition SHADOW DANCING: High contrast shot in Black & White depicting sharp shadows that portray the strength of the sunlight. The sun is strong and the heat exudes from the whiteness of the asphalt. It is midday and the shadows are short. We are rushing to hide from the heat as shown in the dynamic running stance caught in time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/9e3b58fa-c90a-437a-8efe-5e305411ddd9/ayla+jabr+%7C+Lightness.JPG projects - Photography Exhibition LIGHTNESS: Detail shot depicting the many attributes of light. The quality of the light varies from a warm orangey glow to a striking formal blue. The abstract imagery allows the viewer's mind to be transposed into a dreamlike moment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/94548bb0-bd77-4128-a51b-2d4e8721881b/ayla+jabr+%7C+Zoom.jpg projects - Photography Exhibition ZOOM: Dynamic shot of moving cars inside a tunnel. The lights play a double role of showing movement and perspective. This shot was taken at a time when I was constantly rushing to finish my exams and extra-curricular work. It depicts my state of mind at that moment when I felt I was not in sync with the world around me. https://www.aylajabr.com/projects/project-one-4yzrt monthly 0.5 2021-12-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/025a53fc-ab8b-4cb5-872c-5f1d88a609ef/5+me+and+the+sea+1.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/03399ad2-e0f3-4ba3-8401-57c535d3ca08/6+me+and+the+sea+2.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/9d5ff03e-18d4-43ca-a42d-bdac15d96d38/13+free.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/f005a1b5-45ca-465f-b996-e56395019337/11+beirut+from+the+sea.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/e46dcee4-67f5-4e82-827f-65974356e7e1/8+Far-aya.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/945f078d-9cba-4591-94a9-a4cfd4c22650/2+allee+des+innocents.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/b8a286a6-08c8-43af-9562-4e4b1de8d26d/10+couple+1.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/5299e5ea-5206-48ea-a1df-1b68a9cd79c4/7+flight+to+horizon.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61010c42aa8f611cf95cbb4d/39afae47-49cc-4970-82d9-05a346037c9d/9+couple+2.jpg projects - Postcards for Beirut
