With the awakened consciousness of Africans,
including among them the Egyptians,
better to note this quotation, said about 75 years ago:
“The pencil’s era is over,
and the foot’s era is beginning.
That football player has touched in one single year,
as revenue, what all the Egyptian writers and
authors couldn’t touch since the time of Akhnaton.”
Tawfik Al Hakim said this famous quotation in the early 1950s.
Thus, to not let this kind of divertissement
make you forget yourselves with the nonetheless propaganda,
laundering raw geopolitical interests
into the comforting language of values,
with soft power and hard cash.
Peace on Earth
PAIX SUR TERRE
وعلي الأرض السلم وفي الناس المسرة
