With every letter, I, will explore everything, in ever possible way.

A collection of esoteric essays, personal ponderings, powerful poems, short stories and judicial journalism

I am in year 13, the last year of my formal education. 2026 which will be the most formative year of my life and the most important for society as a whole. Right now I feel that my creativity is not affecting the world as much as it could, thus I have started this portfolio to convey my critical position on technology, culture, politics, media and, well, life.

I wake up every morning and indulge in an Apple.

it takes me 30 minutes – nibble after nibble and bite after bite I even eat the core and the seeds before my time runs out.

I look in the mirror and see a black reflection, I stare into myself, i can see everything – behind the mirror and into myself – yet nothing is there except the apple, which I just ate.

I travel to school whilst consuming the cold, electric, invisible air – with my wired earbuds wrapping themselves around me – like a comforting mother feeding me information, they begin to constrict me.

I take them out, pause and look around; swarms of people walk past me – they sidestep, avoid and give a wide berth to me without ever looking up, as if I contain some visible virus.

At school I get put in formation to download more information

This is nothing new to me

It could be Dis and it could be a Miss

In class Sam sung.

ane then the bell was rung.

A break from information.

Time to charge up and consume some data.

Have some fun with the other integers.

Catch some viruses etc etc.

I phone my mate.

We meet at the fete

life is grate

I go back home

Without my phone

and i fall to my knees

and i start to blled

In walks my father

I live my life by the charger.
