The Palestinian Dies

Field Notes on Terror & Beginnings
by George Abraham

In the image — any image — the Palestinian is dead. In the background, a field of rocks that once were homes, field of fallen flowers. Beyond the image, the Palestinian dies. And elsewhere, dies again. The Palestinian is witnessed dead. That witnessing, a kind of death. Of someone's child, of someone's sibling, of someone's someone. The ownership of the Palestinian body, and after-image of, as another kind of death. The circulation of the image as anti anti/ownership. Ours, in some disembodied landsense which, presuming we are living, can't be ours. The ours implicated as a kind of death. The anti/ownership constituted by our living as another death. The circulation of the image as a motion with a void at its center, beating. Void which says look into me, and festers in the un-looking. Void which is opposite of image, after of sounds's after. Not dis/embodied but the / between. The Palestinian dies in, and against, the image, any image. The Palestinian dies in the image, stone in hand. The Palestinian dies in the image, roof ablaze. The Palestinian dies in the landscape's impossible green. The Palestinian dies in, and as, rubble. In the image, a politics of verticality. Beneath settler's acid. Beneath settler's rain. Any image. The Palestinian dies on screen. The smartphone powered by dying acid. In the background of an image, a teenager, 3-lettered badge on their chest, machine gun pitched towards god, smiles into the sun, setting over the horizon of a Palestinian corpse. In the image, a reddening sea. The american, believing we are all fragments of fragments of the same dismembered starlight, rubs their face with our dead & oceanic, to perform an image they name Birthright. A european digs and. A country. The west shares the image. After which, there is no after. It is 2022. Westward, the image is shared. The image, mistaken for an imperial siege on Ukraine, draws outrage beyond nation. The image is a Palestinian image, clarifies the Associated Press. The image dies again in dis-recognition. The living Palestinians die in the anti-mirror of the image's rot cycle. The Palestinians die in their living. The failure of these visual archives as a kind of death. Eye of camera, I of state. Death by which the west sanitizes our deaths with their empathy. Digestible until desensitized. Owned, dis-imagined, eventually. The border becween I and arch(i)ve as a line drawn in terror. The void at the center of the image's circulation, calling my every name. To stand at the event horizon of terror itself, and say my gazing, because of my living, is not enough. To call it razing. To move beyond w(h)it(e)ness of space itself, so that we may search for the return of our selves amidst the chaos of fallen stars. To name my spiraling origin an america of. To know what I'm searching for will require, of my body, of the many selves beyond it, an unknowable number of uncountable deaths.

we've got crooks holding us down, we've had crooks holding us down. why are you still harking on marx (who'd not heed bakunin), when you berate those stuck on adam smith? come along with buckminster fuller. we've got crooks holding us down, we've had crooks holding us down. when 1 in 10,000 of us can innovate to care for all else, why pin all value on the labour and make everything harder and slaves of us all? come along with buckminster fuller. we've got spooks holding us down, we've had spooks holding us down. the youth of yesterdays and today are still right to reject the spurious notion we each have towork and toil to earn our right to life. 1 in 10,000. we've got crooks holding us down, we've had crooks holding us down. when we rise to say "we're not doing that anymore", we may reframe all our petty chores. when we see to educate ourselves and re-remember we may educate others, we may reframe all our petty chores. yet you may be listening from while still we've got crooks holding us down, while still we had crooks holding us down, reeling in suffering ignoramy or agony of knowing. join me in the agony of knowing, they know not what they do. we've got crooks holding us down, we've had crooks holding us down. no emancipation from hanging your worth on your toil. you are worth inately, to be and experience, to bare witness, to feel, and care, to be aware, to dare to dare, to be free and loving.

A quotation by Kendall, Paul Murray

The biographer does not trust his witnesses, living or dead. He may drip with the milk of human kindness, believe everything that his wife and his friends and his children tell him, enjoy his neighbors and embrace the universe — but in the workshop he must be as ruthless as a board meeting smelling out embezzlement, as suspicious as a secret agent riding the Simplon-Orient Express, as cold-eyed as a pawnbroker viewing a leaky concertina. With no respect for human dignity, he plays off his witnesses one against the other, snoops for additional information to confront them with, probes their prejudices and their pride, checks their reliability against their self-interest, thinks the worst until he is permitted to think better.

Paul Murray Kendall (1911-1973) American academic and historian
