I Don’t Like Writing
I don’t like writing
Nevertheless, it is an unavoidable activity for me, such as breathing
As long as silence talks to me, many impressions crowd into my mind
Often I stay idle, wondering about random ideas
But I am not able to rationalise all that is inscrutable
It is as time shows me life in pictures
Like a collection of many old miniature paintings
Some of them are blurred
And others are very unambiguous
All those words of mine give only sporadic impressions about myself
All those poems of mine are only fragments of me
My poetry is accessible for everyone to read
My poetry is not trapped in a book
My poetry is absolutely a wild living thing that breaths
Hence, I chose the freedom to express myself straightforwardly.
