      <description>&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /&gt;Le
   monde est petit…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Le
   monde est tellement petit qu’il n’y a pas d’horizon. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;L’imagination
   s’est dissipée dans un volcan de brouillard, dans un cratère comme le sont ces villages
   du sud qui ont assisté a ma naissance… ou plutôt a mes naissances&amp;nbsp;; comme si
   la vie ne voulant pas de moi, m’a accepté de contrecœur, et a essayé de me replonger
   dans un gouffre utérin. Seulement, cette grotte informe ne pu rester recouverte de
   nuée, le brouillard a fini par se dissiper, et le ciel s’est ouvert dans son infinie
   profondeur.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;C’est
   donc ainsi que, conçu dans un œuf sans coquille, et dont la membrane n’est guère opaque,
   je me trouve aussitôt soumis a une nouvelle existence où, &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;la
   vue s’étant dégagée un peu, la membrane s’étend mais sans se briser. Son opacité augmente
   sur les bords, et l’espace s’allonge pour en faire un cylindre parfait, d’où parvient
   la lumière, parfois, d’en haut.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Mais
   l’homme est nomade, comme disait un certain Brel, et l’espace acquis dans cette campagne
   natale, loin de la ville et de ses tracas, et vite conquis par cet être ailé qui s’envole
   très haut… suffisamment haut pour survolé les montagnes environnantes qui m’oppriment…
   Mais il fait nuit, et le monde est trop petit pour qu’il y ait un horizon, un rêve,
   un espoir…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Dans
   cette immensité noire et morose, je ferme les yeux encore une fois. N’ayant que la
   chaleur de mes veines pour m’éclairer, je vois tout rouge… Rouge comme le sang… comme
   le plaisir sanguinaire de l’amant s’acharnant sur sa belle vierge sauvage… Rouge…
   Rougeâtre … Rose&amp;nbsp;! Comme la bouche imaginaire qui me couvre les lèvres, qui me
   colle au cou, qui sort sa mie délicieuse et me lêche le corps jusqu'à ce que, ivre,
   je tombe… Et, en retombant, je touche la terre molle qui me prends en elle, qui m’absorbe
   dans sa résolve hallucinante, dans l’élan de sa chaire qui brule.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Je
   regarde donc… je regarde autours de moi, tout d’abord, pour essayer de retrouver mes
   repéres. Les montagnes n’ont pas bougé, et pourtant… ce n’est plus du tout le même
   décor… Tout est devenu plus grand, plus impressionnant… En un moment intense, je frissonne…
   J’essaye de me souvenir, de reconstruire ma mémoire, mais mon passé semble être entré
   dans une profondeur inatteignable. Ebloui, j’observe ….&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Je
   suis allongé sur un sol blanc, parfaitement blanc. De tout les cotés, des murs élevés
   penchent sur moi. Les murs sont blancs. Une fenêtre a une hauteur infranchissable
   laisse passer une lumière tamisée. A travers la fenêtre, j’arrive a peine a voir quelques
   branches d’arbres, et plus loin, une fenêtre entourée d’un mur tout aussi blanc. Je
   lève les yeux, et je trouve un plafond dont l’altitude me donne le vertige. Au milieu,
   une lampe penchée qui semble vouloir me donner la main – cette main gantée qui ressemble
   a une poire – mais n’y arrive pas car ses bras ont été amputés.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Que
   s’est-il donc passé&amp;nbsp;? où sont mes montagnes&amp;nbsp;? où est le ciel qui, il y a
   quelques instants me portait de ses mains invisibles et me faisait planer au dessus
   même des nuages&amp;nbsp;? La ville m’a donc rattrapée, aussi vite qu’un ouragan dans
   le désert&amp;nbsp;! J’essaye de marcher pour atteindre un mur, de le toucher, me disant
   déjà qu’il s’évanouira, et peut être, non seulement je reverrais une montagne, mais
   que l’obstacle disparaitra complètement pour me laisser voir, pour la première fois,
   une étendue menant vert le mout du monde. Le bout du monde, jusqu’auquel je me déplacerais,
   même a quatre pattes comme je suis obligé de le faire… Le bout du monde, d’oú je plongerais
   dans le vide sidéral, où plus rien ne viendra limiter ma vue. Là ou le monde – que
   dis-je - &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;l’univers se mettra a nu pour
   mon plaisir… L’univers deviendra, a l’image de ma mère, cette innocence si pure qui
   n’a pas de pudeur. Innocence qui fut, bien avant la première pomme, le premier serpent,
   la première séduction, le propre de mes semblables. Car, parait-il, j’ai des semblables…
   des êtres amorphes qui ont, pendant des siècles, des millénaires, essayé, á quatre
   pattes, d’aller vers le bout du monde… pour retrouver le sein nourricier de cet être
   angélique…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="mso-ansi-language: FR"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face=Calibri&gt;Je
   tête, pour me remplir de forces, mais aussi pour absorber ma mère… Il faut que je
   suce entièrement, jusqu'à ce qu’elle soit toute contenue dans mon ventre, comme je
   l’ai été dans le sien. Pour que l’univers soit en moi, et que je sois sa mère&amp;nbsp;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

        <p>
      Yesterday, I had an interesting discussion with an acquaintance...
   </p>
        <p>
      I was at a restaurant/bar that I visit often. He was a waiter that saw me writing
      quite often, and was wondering whether I was some form of a reporter. His issue was
      that some foreign reporters (often Western) would make use of people, make them say
      things that fit his/her political ideals/propaganda, and use it to pursue his/ her
      own agenda. For some reason, it got into his head that my writing hobby/habbit has
      to do with those people...
   </p>
        <p>
      First, I try as much as I can not to be political. I did and probably would still
      do before I die get involved in potlitics, as I have values to defend, and would do
      anything I peacefully can to give my ideas (and those who defend the same ideals) a
      chance. However, I am extremely careful not to let emotions define my opinions. Many
      times, I am asked about an event or an emotion, and my response is that it is too
      fresh to comprehend. Ideals are build over time, in a calm and deep analysis of the
      history, present and perception of future...
   </p>
        <p>
      Second, even though sometimes I write my opinions, I mostly write my feelings. I have
      no pretense to hold a greater truth. I only hold my emotions, and sometimes and analysis
      of my past emotions and thoughts in a cold headed inspiration into what I would like
      to see happening.
   </p>
        <p>
      So, be fearless, my friend. The worst that could happen is for one of my poetic ideas
      to become the lyrics of a bad song...

        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. Our relationship goes back to my very first day in
      life, even my very first second. Even though on paper, I am registered as being born
      in Figuig, my parents home town, on the 16th of February, I actually I was born
      in Casablanca sometime in late January 1968. I have traveled a lot, and I have
      loved some cities, hated others, but Casablanca will always hold a special place in
      my heart.
   </p>
        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. I have seen your many faces, and the take time had
      on your physionomy. I remember when we were children, you and I, and you were already
      a promise of a metropolitan culture. I remember when your seaside's nights were
      rocked by Elvis, the Beattles, the Eagles, Jhon Lennon, Bob Dylan, Joe Cocker,
      David Bowie,  ABBA, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, Simon&amp;Garfunkel, ...etc.
      At that time, you were still as oriental as ever, and your evenings echoed
      the songs of Oum Kalthoum, Mohammad Abdelwahab, Abelhalim Hafiz, Farid Al Atrash,
      Nazim Al ghazali, Sabah Fakhri ...etc. Your beaches in the summer danced Flamenco,
      your weddings sounded Andalucian tarab, and in the trenches, one could loudly hear
      the reborn pop music of Nass Al Ghiwane...
   </p>
        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. You saw me grow, and witnessed my early successes
      and failures. You brought me my first loves, my passion for electronics and then for
      computers, my inability to learn music or dance, my first ink portraits, my first
      poems. You inspired my dreams, and showed me the stars and the comets.You also saw
      me part from you for a few years, looking for other constallations, but reclaimed
      me so strongly I dwindled back in a hurry.
   </p>
        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. You were harsh on me when I started my first business.
      I started in a market with 3 competitors, and 12 more saw the light within 6 months...
      You were harsh on me as well when you let my best friend and business partner whom
      I loved silently get killed for the stupidest of reasons. You made me glorious in
      the culture market, and then in the PR market, but each time letting me down at the
      highest of my vain glory. Were you just reminding me of my first and truest passions
      ? You gave me a home for my sweetest moments, gave me a the sweetest of daughters,
      then turned my life into neverending conflicts. You still gave me a nest from
      which I could get reborn from my ashes...
   </p>
        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. I don't think I know you anymore. While I was busy
      with my little ambitions and daily troubles, you changed so much on me. You music
      is no longer mine. You don't even seem to be keen on diversity anymore. Your gardens
      and parks don't look green anymore. Your dreams seem so far away from mine. I
      can hardly find anything to tell you anymore... Or maybe I grew up on you, and you
      don't recognize me anymore.
   </p>
        <p>
         Bye Bye Casablanca. I will miss you a lot. Sure I will come every so
      often and visit. You will always have a precious spot in my heart and  big chunk
      of my memory, but it is time we part and become friends again...

   your weddings sounded Andalucian tarab, and in the trenches, one could loudly hear
   the reborn pop music of Nass Al Ghiwane...
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
   &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Bye Bye Casablanca. You saw me grow, and witnessed my early successes
   and failures. You brought me my first loves, my passion for electronics and then for
   computers, my inability to learn music or dance, my first ink portraits, my first
   poems. You inspired my dreams, and showed me the stars and the comets.You also saw
   me part from you for a few years, looking for other constallations, but reclaimed
   me so strongly I dwindled back in a hurry.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
   &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Bye Bye Casablanca. You were harsh on me when I started my first business.
   I started in a market with 3 competitors, and 12 more saw the light within 6 months...
   You were harsh on me as well when you let my best friend and business partner whom
   I loved silently get killed for the stupidest of reasons. You made me glorious in
   the culture market, and then in the PR market, but each time letting me down at the
   highest of my vain glory. Were you just reminding me of my first and truest passions
   ? You gave me a home for my sweetest moments, gave me a the sweetest of daughters,
   then turned my life into neverending conflicts. You still gave me a&amp;nbsp;nest from
   which I could get reborn from my ashes...
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
   &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Bye Bye Casablanca. I don't think I know you anymore. While I was busy
   with my little ambitions and daily troubles, you changed so much on me. You music
   is no longer mine. You don't even seem to be keen on diversity anymore. Your gardens
   and parks don't look green&amp;nbsp;anymore. Your dreams seem so far away from mine. I
   can hardly find anything to tell you anymore... Or maybe I grew up on you, and you
   don't recognize me anymore.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
   &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Bye Bye Casablanca. I will miss you a lot. Sure I will come every so
   often and visit. You will always have a precious spot in my heart and&amp;nbsp; big chunk
   of my memory, but it is time we part and become friends again...
&lt;/p&gt;

         I have been puzzled by what has been happening in the US election compaign
      this past week in <strong><font color="#a52a2a">Florida</font></strong>. It really
      looks like the more Bush compaigns there, the more the state leans closer to Kerry
      (today, <a href="http://www.surveyusa.com/currentelectionpolls.html">Survey USA</a> is
      giving Kerry 50%, Bush 49%)... Well, maybe the Kerry compaign should send Bush to
      more battle states...

   &lt;span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US"&gt;I close my
   eyes. When I reopen them, as In a dream, I am driving full speed on the National 1
   highway. I wonder what I am doing there... I remember&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;:
   I am a hunter ! These ground or air roads are the paths to my prey. A very special
   prey, and a rare one. An inaccessible prey ! But here I am, like a lover, staking
   my life to reach it. I turn left, to the roadside, and I see a windmill...&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;

   &lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"&gt;The plane continues its flight over the Mediterranean.
   I close my eyes again. A turn makes me push the brakes. But isn't hunting the game
   of creating it own prey ? Can a prey be if it isn't hunted ? Why ask questions, I
   cannot live without hunting ; else, not only me, but the whole world will cease to
   exist…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/span&gt;

   &lt;span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US"&gt;I must hold
   on, and fight, even against windmills. And my prey, I will not hurt it. I want to
   seduce it, love it, and satisfy it… Why then hunt it ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-ansi-language: EN-US"&gt;

   &lt;span style="FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-ansi-language: EN-US"&gt;Going down… To stop
   flying… Return to firm land… Is it the end of the road ? Is my prey here ? Far from
   everything I know, everything I am accustomed to ? But can my prey be contained in
   one place ? My prey is human, but it is not a person… It is every person ! Every one
   I may seduce. How will I seduce them without seeing them ? Without talking to them
   ? Without talking with my own voice ?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;

   &lt;span style="FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-ansi-language: EN-US"&gt;I look up front, and
   see a nice looking, well-dressed young man. A nice suit, white shirt, red tie. He
   was holding a sign. On the sign, my name. I don't understand. I get closer to him,
   and he asks : "Are you Mr. Kemmou ? The Moroccan publisher that reserved a room at
   our hotel ?" The customs procedures gave me the time to discuss with the charming
   man. We talked about tourism, about publishing In Morocco and In Egypt, and about
   the Cairo Book Fair that looked gloomy this year…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;

   sont que le chemin qui mène à la proie. Une proie très spéciale, et rare. Une proie
   inaccessible ! Mais voilà que je suis, tel un amoureux, prêt à tout pour l’atteindre.
   Je tourne les yeux à gauche, vers le bord de la route, et j’aperçois un moulin à vent

   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Une
   voix lointaine s’anime soudain : “Chers passagers, à votre gauche, vous pouvez voir
   l’île de Malte...”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal dir=ltr style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;

   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;L’avion
   continue son vol au dessus de la Méditerranée. Peu de temps passe avant que je n’aie
   refermé les yeux. Un virage s’annonce. Je ralentis. Mais la chasse n’est-elle pas
   créer soi-même sa proie ? Une proie existe-t-elle en tant que proie si elle n’est
   pas chassée ? Mais peu importe, puisque je ne peux vivre sans chasser ; sinon, non
   seulement moi, mais le monde entier cesserait d’exister...&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal dir=ltr style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;
   &lt;o:p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal dir=ltr style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Il
   faut donc s’obstiner, se battre même contre des moulins à vent s’il le faut... Et
   puis cette proie, je ne lui veux point de mal. Je veux tout simplement la séduire,
   l’aimer, la satisfaire. Pourquoi alors chasser ? pourquoi tout cet effort ?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal dir=ltr style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal dir=ltr style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 28.35pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; mso-pagination: none"&gt;
   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;“Dans
   quelques instants, nous atterrirons à l’aéroport du Caire. Veuillez attacher vos ceintures,
   redresser le dossier de votre siège et éteindre vos cigarettes !”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Descendre...
   ne plus voler... revenir sur une terre ferme... Est-ce l’aboutissement ? Ma proie
   se trouve-t-elle ici ? Loin de tout ce que je connais, de tout ce qui m’est familier
   ? Mais ma proie peut-elle être contenue en un seul lieu, aussi grand soit-il ? ma
   proie est humaine, mais elle n’est pas une personne... Elle est toutes les personnes
   ! Tous ceux et celles que je peux séduire. Mais comment les séduire sans les voir,
   sans leur parler ? Sans parler de ma propre voix !&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;span lang=FR style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: AGaramond; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt"&gt;&lt;font size=3&gt;Je
   regarde devant moi, et je vois un jeune homme bien vêtu. Un costume de tailleur, bien
   porté. Une chemise blanche. Une cravate rouge. Il portait une pancarte. Sur la pancarte,
   mon nom. Je ne comprend pas. Je m’approche de lui, et il dis : “Vous êtes Mr. Kemmou
   ? L’éditeur marocain qui a réservé dans notre hôtel ?” Les procédures douanières me
   donnèrent le temps de discuter avec le charmant jeune homme. Nous discutâmes du tourisme,
   de l’édition de livres au Maroc et en Egypte, et du salon du livre qui s’annonce morose
   cette année, à cause du choix des dates...&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;
   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
