Wordsmiths

It's fascinating how poets and literature critics think. The way they relate certain things. The way they depict certain situations in abstract ways. Their pure literature, multilingualism and humbleness is off the roofs. Their feet indeed touch the grounds but their eyes reach the sky. The perspective that they bring to the discussion offers valuable insights into the culture of poetry. They possess a unique lens through which they perceive the world, one that transcends the ordinary and delves into the depths of emotion and imagination. Their mind does not seem to have the fence that many common people have, which helps them to think vastly and uniquely. For poets, words are not merely tools of communication but vessels of profound expression, capable of capturing the essence of existence in all its complexity.

Facade

 We create facades for every person, tailoring ourselves to fit their expectations, always afraid of what they’d think if they saw the real us. We perform, pretending habits define us, all to maintain an illusion and control the narrative, losing sight of who we really are. We become consumed by appearances, worrying about how a photographer might capture us, obsessing over perceptions, and forgetting to simply smile. We live for an imaginary audience, scripting every moment as though life is a production. Then there are the one-way mirrors we build, hiding our flaws while reflecting others’ back at them. We don’t want them to see our cracks, so we manipulate how they view us, shielding our vulnerabilities. Isn’t it selfish? We curate every interaction, even Googling the perfect spelling of a word, knowing the person wouldn’t judge us. But it’s not for them, is it? it’s for the fragile ego we nurture. The irony? In shielding ourselves from judgment, we’ve trapped ourselves in a pri...

Blackboard

Life is weird. One moment, you’re cruising, feeling like the main character, and the next, you’re standing in the rain, questioning every decision you’ve ever made, with a track playing in the background like a scene from an indie film. If you ask me, life is basically a giant blackboard. Sometimes it’s clean, sometimes it’s messy, and it’s always waiting for the next chapter. One day, it’s full of equations you don’t understand, the next, someone has doodled a weirdly detailed dragon in the corner, which I know is totally obscure but you get the point. You wipe some parts off, rewrite others, but the dust of old lessons never fully disappears, and no matter what, you can't get that fresh glint back. And just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, the teacher called reality walks in and changes the syllabus. The trick is to keep writing, keep erasing, and for God’s sake, don’t be afraid to pick up a new piece of chalk. Because no matter how much you mess up, the board is alw...

Rush

Adrenaline rushes mean different things to different people, a sharp contrast shaped by the kaleidoscope of human emotions. For some, it’s the rebellious flick of a lighter, the smoke of a cigarette curling into the night, which is indeed a fleeting escape from a world too heavy to carry. For others, it’s the sharp sting of a blade against their skin, and the blood trickling down, pain becoming a illogical restrain to existence when numbness threatens to consume them. Some find their highs in the roaring hum of an engine as they speed down an empty highway, the wind tearing past their body, a moment of freedom that feels infinite. Thrill-seekers chase danger, their hearts racing as they climb mountains or leap into the void, as though defying death proves they are truly alive. Yet, some don’t chase highs at all, they chase the lows, finding a strange solace in sorrow, in heartbreak, in the sting of tears that remind them they’re human. The ways we seek and cope with adrenaline and emot...
