Middle Eastern Discourse
At this point, going past sentiment is difficult for me. I am in dangerous waters. I need to keep my anonymity, but I have been introduced to someone with a family publishing company based in London, I believe. I am approaching a coterie, and these systems approach and let me in quickly and then throw me off the page exactly as quickly. I must be careful how much I speak and I will keep my ideas inside except on given occasions. It was a few days of freedom, and now I must sit back and do the things that I focus on every day like my writing. Arabs are coming to this space from the entire Middle east. YEMEN is absent and that is the way it must stay. I am tired of the gossiping and cruel snickering and jabs every day. I can hear it all, and these are just losers from all vicinity who don't know me, actually, but they could approach people I am associating with today. They could try and convince them that my observations, intuitions, and presence is dangerous to them as a people and as individuals. People are going to have to make up their own minds and if I sense hostility, I will pull away. No one person holds the key, but one person can acquire them if motivated and protected by a loyal group and following. I am not stupid. I know the lines in my family tree that lead to The Middle East, and I know the intersections in my life that touched that territory. It is best for everyone to back away while decisions are made. I will not be where I am not welcome. My job is in this country at this time, but I must guard a vampire from yesterday.
