Hit and Run


have been to the parks and libraries
have also seen atrocities
have run after the prey
which was an echo of empty words

I heard it in the distance 
ran towards endlessly 
thinking and hoping
acting almost carelessly 

then came mindfulness
and permanent make up 
apple facebook and whatsup
and societal appreciation on social media 

it was weird yet confusing 
so I kept on refusing 
that I did not do it for fame 
and in fact, I was in their frame 

when I bought that dress online 
knew that this was not going to be the only one 
it seems we are all rejected from earth 
some die and some kill and some just live like a bird 
and it overwhelmed me to think about it 
I arrived at nowhere sailing my boat 
so I took an oath 

to find a solution 
yet not there 
and one is to wait for 
the other is to scare
and the other is hit and run 
another is try try try till you die 

I chose the last one and am trying 
jumping without direction
if it was fate it was to be this way 
if it was religion it was to be this way 
if it was math it was to be this way 

and I hate how it is

Ingmar Bergman - Scenes from a Marriage (1973)

Sometimes it is too much love that we do not know what to do with it. Use it for good purposes or bad purposes. What kind of reaction does our body and mind give to too much love? Or let's say when a feeling is too much what is its difference from the other extreme feelings such as jealousy, hate, passion and wanting to possess a person? It is very hard to distinguish in a relationship, in a marriage, between men and women who plays (acts) more and who is more real. Who can understand who is lying less and who is more honest? The answers to these questions are never given. But one thing can be said about the extreme feelings: They do not contain so much empathy and compassion. And there are times that a person needs compassion but finds passion instead and there are times that a person needs protection and finds pity instead. It is too often the case that we are so cruel, we are so totalitarian in our nation-state (as Vonnegut would say) to our only citizen, our partner. Since th...

Deprem, Dostluk ve Digerleri

İtalya saati ile en yakın arkadaşımın doğumgünü geçmiş bulunmakta, kendisi bilmem kaç yaşına girdi ama bilmesini istiyorum hangi yaşta olursa olsun. Onu seviyorum. Daha da duygulanmak isterdim, onun için şarap içecektim. Ama vazgeçtim. Limon suyunu tercih ettim. Nasıl duygulanmam diye sordum kendime. Garip bir şekilde Pınar Selek hakkında çıkan karar, hakarete uğrayan, saldırılan Ermeniler, en iyi araştırmacı ve barışçı gazetecilerin ölümlerinin yıldönümleri, askerlerin intiharları, bugün ben kütüphanedeyken gerçekleşen ve kanımı donduran deprem. Hiçbir şey moralimi bozamaz. Bozmayacak. Hatta ve hatta geleneksel yaşanışların bugüne tezahürü de buna dahil. Bu sabah kalktım erkenden uyuyamadım, Lucca'nın duvarları üzerinde dolandım. Her şeyin rengi ayrı güzeldi. Dağlar ve bulutlar mor, pembe, ağaçların gövdeleri sarı ve yeşil, sarı ve açık pembe binalar, çan sesleri eşliğinde.... yürüdüm. Ağzım açık gökyüzünü izledim. Demek ben uyurken bunları kaçırıyormuşum, dedim kendi kendime...
