  • Do you want to know what it's like to be a writer?

    Everyday your mind is revolving. These people come and go quickly - and only the most tangible ones stay to become characters. These characters evolve. They divide and multiply. They change faces and names. In the course of two seconds you decide when they die - how they live.

    You're a sponge. In an age where media is everywhere, you're a sponge to it. Anything from a word to a person's entire lifetime can be absorbed into your imagination and cultivated - where it would be harvested for the right time, the right line, the right moment for the characters.

    It is a way of living. It is a way of living out fantasies without threat of judgment. To curse, to kill, to love, to mourn - whatever you wish you could say but do not have the balls to, you give to the characters. But then you condemn on the other hand. You find them guilty, and they - in the end - die at your word.

    That is what it's like.

  • The powerful hands wind them up.
    Toy soldiers ready to stand
    and walk their way to battle.
    They are not able to stop.
    The wheel turns and continues

    for the pain;

    for the death.

    And on and again until
    it is a reflex they cannot,
    nor will not,

    fight.
