There are, as I count them, at least 3 Eros and Psyche retellings coming out this year. People seem to expect me to get defensive or territorial, but honestly I’m utterly delighted to see those two idiots getting more time in the sun 💕

A large printed banner hanging under the 🎡 of #Algiers shows solidarity with Imane Khelif and congratulates Kaylia Nemour. Many enjoyed taking selfies with it in the background. The Olympics have never been this mainstream!

With the Hajj taking place, I thought I would share a longer poem about Arabic poetry's most famous lover (Majnūn) on pilgrimage. He struggles to turn his attention towards God and away from his anguished passion for the unattainable Laylā.

—These Days—
⛈️

A time whose crimes control me,
whose ruthlessness crushes me —

Isolation: I drank its cup of sadness
and waste away from its bitter gulps.

I counted on my heart to console me
to endure, but it's betrayed its promise.

— Ṣadaqa ibn ʿAlī (Egypt, 12th c.)

—Anti-nostalgia—
🎍🌵🌴

My heart, when a longing desire
fills me, doesn't feel drawn to my homeland.

I can never go back to it:
can a pearl return to its shell?

—al-Badīʿ al-Dimashqī (d. 1130, Syria, Egypt)
