Our Train (a #poem)

Closing in on the end
the beginning got lost
you found the path

while I missed the right turn
and left
for a new fork in the road
and a knife cut through my soul
while you held my heart
because we missed 
our train

Do you buy consciously?

Spanish fashion brand Zara claims to be innocent and just 'accidentally' designed a bag with a swastika, a shirt that resembles the shirts worn by Jewish concentration camp prisoners and purely 'accidental' published an advertisement that just happened to resemble the situation in Gaza after attacks by the Israeli Defence Force, including a cardboard cut out that purely 'accidental' resembles Palestine. 

That's an awful lot of coincidences for one of the best marketing teams in the world. For a brand that is known to make money thanks to slave labour.







Do you think about stuff like this when you buy something or don't you care?

Broken (a #poem)

Before you cry,
don't try 
to leave


Play some more,
my feelings are yours
but only on a lease

So please

Be careful
for my heart may be yours
but it can be broken
