WEA Story by Mariam We Edit life scenarios We are young
and desperate, we want to be lonely and independent, but we thirst for love and
don’t avoid hatred. We seek for a single God in our hearts and hope that those
attempts aren’t in vain. We smoke the pain away killing our lucent lungs slowly;
we drink for happy moments trying to impress this whisky taste in the memory of
our livers. We don’t need no education, but we cram to spite our desires. We
read classical literature and protest against inanity. We swallow music like
drugs against reality, our drunk smiles dance in pubs breaking the laws of
gravity… In spring our tired bodies feel the sun rays dreaming about the parallel
universe, which is called Delight. Wanting to wake up from this life, we lack time
to feed our appetite. Time… which is just an illusion is not on our side. Time
is our insidious enemy, the only one. We despise
fakes…We must be, not seem. We are not afraid to be accused of being
self-centered, vainglorious, barbaric and straightforward. We want natural
breasts, real stepping stones. We want to inhabit facts not dreams. And let our
laws be illogical, for we don’t make an idol of any kind or an image of
anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea. We adopt and repeal our
own eternal verities. We
are not afraid to be hurt, therefore we plunge into affairs and relationships.
Though we live with wounds, our insidious enemy heals them. We are armed to the
teeth, we learn languages. Let words rout the enemy; expressed in verse, they
help us to be immortal. We
are dreamers. We hear heartbeats and read between the lines. As we contradict
ourselves, let us be full of fight and never satisfied, but pray for us because
we will never change, pray for forgiveness. Worshiping what we are, we live in sin
and overcome temptations; we judge fairly, so don’t be in despair. We
are ashamed of our past, of our childish thoughts and now listening to the winds
of change, when the future is in the air, we are thankful for any given chance
to develop. We run from a minor problem and on the way while showing a clean
pair of heels we ruin another insoluble, as there is no alternative. WE
such a tiny word including 2 letters, including you and me, those young
resilient and sharp-witted b******s,
whose private initiative is to survive here now or never, end wars, compose
songs, reduce prices, advertise mercy, plant happiness and teach those who
cause sorrow. We are here to give the distressful uncertainty its revenge. Let
us fulfill ourselves, since We Edit life scenarios… Welcome
to Air-Reading Flight into the dark. Local time is our enemy. Please make sure
your seats are fully upright and all tray tables are in the upright and locked
position. All cell phones and portable electronics must be turned off until the
captain informs us that we have completed our ascent. We remind you that this
is not a non-smoking/drinking flight. In the event of a decompression, smothering
and intoxication an oxygen mask will automatically appear in front of you.
Fasten your seat belts. We wish you all enjoyable reading.
