Paint Me White & Give Me A Shower



After living in “The White City” for over a year, I’ve resorted to comparing myself to the famous Bauhaus buildings that the city is famous for; all of my fresh, painted love for this city has quickly been coated with a hazy, gray layer of soot (or maybe it’s sweat) that can’t be cleaned, but only painted over again and again.

Luckily my friend from New York, better known as The New York Times, was able to give me a fresh layer of paint, before I take one of my five showers today.

About Alis

Alis is a human rights activist, writer and part-time hermit. She was born in New York City, raised in Seattle, studied in Cambridge and the Pioneer Valley, and for the past five years has lived in Palestine. To make money, she works in what they called “international relations” in college, but what she thinks more effectively should be described as abusing the written word and acting as the unnecessary cultural buffer between the east and the west. She is currently a refugee of all things Israeli and is surviving in the last liberal enclave in Palestine, Ramallah, where she is resisting exodus with the few friends she has left and books she’s managed to steal from the net.
