The Curious Adventures of Gordan's Thoughts

Submarines

Submarines. Float, sink, swim. Up, down Back, forth Dare I say, in and out. Over, under. Immerse, emerge. Plunge, halt. Release, holt. Forward, backwards. Round, straight. Bullet. Proof. Never missile proof. Resistance of the seas Push and pull… Read More

While I Was Away…

I spent some time in a metaphorical submarine as the unconscious unfurled while I sought answers in the depths of me. Thankfully, I did have wifi connection wherever I went, so upon emerging from the deep blue seas,… Read More

If we’re in leadership positions, we ought to do better. Who are we to “enjoy life” when we know full well the world is falling apart and riding on our generations’ leaders to be the future? Are we truly so arrogant to believe “someone else” will clean up the mess or are we going to step up our games and get off our butts? We can do better and we have a duty to encourage better behaviour and better attitudes amongst each other by committing it ourselves. No more excuses people, time’s up. If we are to be our own leaders, start leading. ☮️ . . .

You say you’re of the same faith and yet you segregate You choose only to communicate With those of the same race You said “division shows oppression” Well you divided your own system By being inclusive to the gays But not inclusive of other races You see foreigners as “opportunities” They’re your freedom from atrocity In person, you show a smile They can’t see behind your lies Then your true colours show online So I’m drawing the line Because though you’re civil in person Your chatroom exhibits racism ••••• #MG 🖌 . . . So it’s a group of English speakers but the bilingual Chinese speakers choose to only communicate between each other, formulating a pattern of ignoring anyone who is a non-Chinese-speaker and only engaging with each other. This has been going on for two years and I’m calling you out on racism. No, walking away from it actually. Yeah you’re decent to each other face to face but your chatroom shows it all. 🙄 . . . . . #poetry #poetsunite #poets #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers #writersofinstagram #writing #alwayswriting #worldofwords #wordsforqueens #wordswithkings #shewritestruth #hespeakstruth #hkpoetry #spilledink #language #bilingual #disappointed #hongkong #sad #walkingaway #oppression #chatroom #racism #truecolors #thankyou #chinese
“But why would we wanna grow up? Freedom has so many responsibilities!” he asked. . . . Then the kid learned that #communism was about having decisions made for him and opinions dictated by a mandate, thus relieving him of the burden of ever having to think for himself again. Nah, the kid chose to be burdened instead, all in the name of “freedom” and he called it #democracy. Biggest irony though, is that even his understanding of “freedom” had been dictated by someone else’s mandate... 😏 . . . . . . . #poetry #poetsunite #poets #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers #writersofinstagram #writing #alwayswriting #worldofwords #wordsforqueens #wordswithkings #shewritestruth #hespeakstruth #hkpoetry #spilledink #hongkong #oppression #irony #freedom #dictate #story #laughalittle #growth #accountability

...The #pickuplines that come out of #protests... 🤦🏻‍♂️😆🤣 . . . . . . Rationale: an #orgasm is a form of liberation from oppression and in some places would be considered “political protest”. Ironic though, since orgasms increase happy hormones in the brain and essentially reduce violence and abuse so like.......#makelovenotwar 😉 . . . . . . . . #poetry #poetsunite #poets #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers #writersofinstagram #writing #alwayswriting #worldofwords #wordsforqueens #wordswithkings #shewritestruth #hespeakstruth #hkpoetry #spilledink #humannature #sex #sexuality #liberation #oppression #hongkong #sexualrevolution #awakening
Storytime: Imagine an even number of people placed in the same situation. Imagine that half are filled with gratitude and the other half are filled with resentment. That means half are likely to give generously and the other half are likely to take without giving. The generous half will not be offended by this but the entitled half never learns to fend for themselves. The generous half walk away with a smile, the entitled half stay resentful. Funnily enough, all of them had the freedom to choose a response, only half of them chose to be happy 😉 . . . . . . #poetry #poetsunite #poets #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers #writersofinstagram #writing #alwayswriting #worldofwords #wordsforqueens #wordswithkings #shewritestruth #hespeakstruth #hongkong #fighting #battle #generosity #entitlement #innerworkings #story #philosophy #reflections
