Apart from being pretty, what other nice things do you do in life?

I read & read until I fall asleep with a book over my chest
Then I find links between Iqbal's paradigm of nation states & Foucault's biopower in my sleep
Then I wake up & choose to incorporate science instead of digital humanities into literature
Then I think of putting Russell & Nietzsche in parallels while I browse banal twitter hashtags
I sometimes imagine Ulysses on a span of years instead of a single day whilst painting whirling derveshis
And at night, as I close my eyes to sleep I try to find contexts of the disjointed letters at the start of some of my favorite Surahs
It ends on the same note: a book over my chest, my body on rest & a mind endless.
