REPEATING OR DIGESTING CHILDHOOD TRAUMA

LATER

Repressed childhood damages

Create the reconstruction

Of more damages later

But the more they're digested

The more immunization

Against later damages

SYRIAN FLOWERS IN AMSTERDAM

SYRIAN FLOWERS

Three boys from Syria

Walk around in the streets

And distribute flowers

Expressing gratitude

For being received here

I got a flower too

WHISPER OF SYRIAN SURVIVORS

Those who survived the war

Or torturous prison

Will tremble for ever

Those who overcome tremble

Will gratefully whisper

And blink in the sun’s light

Those who meet the trembling

Hear whispers and see blinks

Will learn much about life
