And "Amoun Haboo" is Jeddah, the father of Abu Hamid, and in the year 1948, like other Palestinians from Acre to Lebanon, before she died in the year 1956 there, the story was recommended before her death to restore her bones and bury her in the Akka cemetery.
The work that continues on the impact of funerary music begins, with a scene of Iman sitting on a chair wearing the dress of the grandmother, as if her personality was reincarnated in an attempt to tell the story, but she soon begins to return to herself, and the dress of the grandmother removes a piece A circular bowl filled it with soil that I brought specially from Acre, and watered it with what it carries with water, before it carries the symbolic symbolic grandmother's shroud, and sits on the chair, where it was, relax The memory of a child has not yet been born in us. "
Abu Hamid, who confirmed that she is working to achieve the will of her grandmother, and is looking for a way to restore her bones from Lebanon, where she is now, to bury her in Acre, she confirmed that "achieving the will of the grandmother is not an easy matter, especially since there is no clear jurisdiction in Israel for such issues, it is, The first time that someone has the right to return to bones belonging to his grandmother or his father's grandmother, or any of his relatives, and that the procedures in Lebanon may not be easy. A title for his address in Israel, so I went to the "Red Cross", and my relatives in Lebanon are following the issue for their part .. I hope to succeed in achieving the will of my grandmother, while realizing that the issue is not so easy.
On her work, she says: I did not want to communicate that there is a state of schizophrenia that I live today as a Palestinian inside the green line, and she was living in "Amoun Habo" as a refugee .. With the catastrophe and the displacement, complex and complex, my father and the fact that he was under the age of thirteen were able to return, but my uncle was not allowed to do so, hence the idea of talking about "Amoun Haboo", which is a symbol of all the refugees who lived and died while dreaming of returning.
Abu Hamid, the poet also, expressed this work by saying: The story of "Amoun Habu" is my story, because I feel alienation provokes me to live my country .. How do I build a house of sand and live in it .. How do I like my memory flying over my fragrances, so I like the taste in a throat of memory. I sit on the side of history .. I sew a bark drawing caves wet with a slaughtered deer, chasing humanity in us, chasing the hands of time to live in life.
The great poet Mahmoud Darwish was not absent from the text of Abu Hamid literary about "Amoun Haboo", where he addressed him by saying: Mahmoud Darwish, we are the neighbors of life ..
And she continues: My brother, the sky is all the sky for us, so do not cry on the box of a cloud with the bowels of your triumphants .. Raise your head .. My love is a child who loves, so do not leave him alone as our memory is there .. breaking the registration of my friend .. Do not kill the beauty of the desert in your eyes.
Abu Hamid confirmed that she is interested in presenting this work in Tel Aviv, to communicate what she wants to the Israeli, in a test that is not guided by his humanity .. This is what she reflects in her poem "Amoun Haboo" when she says: O children of Moses ... you will not be born from gold a soul! .
