String Theory - Poetry Writing

I am a string,
moving through space and time
and getting knotted up with other strings. 

Some knots are big, 
while some are small. 
Regardless of that, we all keep moving
while making many tangled messes.

Q&A Essay: Ugur Gallenkus

Image
    Background Information   Ugur Gallenkus is a Turkish digital artist known for his work where he juxtaposes two very different photographs and finalises them as one picture.

Residual Bigotry

     Lately, like usual, a lot of thoughts have been flying around in my head. Also like usual, it's one of those things that I don't think I - or anyone else, really - has an answer for. Regardless of that, I will write an essay about it right now for the sole purpose of expressing my opinion. Note that what I say might still be disagreeable to some people. :-)      I notice that I have trash-talked the youth quite a lot and have failed multiple times to give this generation - MY generation - credit on all the good things that they have accomplished. The truth is that no generation is perfect, and as we enter a new year, a new decade or a new century, many things would have obviously changed for the newer generations. Today, however, is the day I express the appreciation towards Gen Z-ers and Millennials that I never have.      First and foremost, my generation is currently living under the older generation's rules, policies and decisions th...
