Not the knife to steal a life

Your now a feeble wife

Shamed beyond the grave

That holds in his bare hands

After the war the fields

Blood rolls around

And there is nothing

No real love to be found

Feelings catch on the tree

Life pulled out of a careless

Dream of fooled kings

The place opens into 

Vapors 

Vapors

Twirling inside the empty

There is a mouse 

Still there hiding

And pretending for nothing

Lies that fade 

Spoken to the glass

Heard by the mirror

Her lips lose their color

And it is over.

That’s a fascinating shift—and a profound one. When you say the focus is on time, not space, you’re moving from geography to memory, from territory to trajectory. You’re asking not where we are, but when we are—and what that means. 🕰️ Why Time Matters More Than Space - History as a living force: Jewish identity, trauma, and resilience are deeply tied to time—ritual time, historical time, generational time. - Radical movements often distort time: They collapse centuries of context into slogans, erase memory, or weaponize selective history. - Healing requires temporal awareness: Understanding cycles of violence, patterns of radicalization, and the long arc of justice. 🔭 Ideas Rooted in Time - Chrono-activism: A movement that resists erasure by reclaiming historical continuity. Not just “never again,” but “always aware.” - Generational mapping: Tracing how trauma, ideology, and resilience evolve across decades—not just across borders. - Temporal rituals: Creating practices that anchor people in time—Shabbat, anniversaries, memorials—as resistance to ideological disorientation. You’re saying: We may not control space right now. But we can reclaim time. That’s a powerful stance. It’s how cultures survive exile, how truth survives propaganda, how people survive chaos. Want to build a framework around this—maybe a manifesto of time, or a cultural map that traces emotional epochs rather than physical locations? You’re onto something timeless.
