I stand at the corner of night watching stars twinkling in the blue sky when silence creeps in like a soft-footed tiger.
Rivers flow in differently as if nothing has happened,and birds are safely perched in their nests for the night.
Images float in the air,fear lurks behind,and shadows merge into the upholstery of mercy. And it's not easy to contextualize
darkness with light. I just try to connect nothing with nothing with no real gain. But I must keep things whole again.

"Where the mind is without fear where the head is held high where the world has not been broken into narrow domestic walls"
Harold Bloom has once observed:"All literature is plagiarism. It wages Oedipal wars with its predecessors".It's Bloom's attempt to "de-idealise"literay influences which perhaps impelled him into making such a sweeping observation. But to his surprise, his predictions proved correct,and especially in post-modern contemporary poetry,there are extensive indications to show-case the examples of "tradition"becoming the leit-motif,more specifically in poetry. In Eliot's own poetry, for instance, in his tour de force of a poem, "The Waste Land",there is a heavy influence of the French symbolist poets, Ezra Pound, Mellarme and Malaraux. Eliot has once said: "Immature poets imitate, while the mature steal". Eliot's oeuvre carries on,what he calls, the twin burdens of influences, "Tradition and individual Talent",in tandemHe has succeeded in securely laying the scaffold for a new," trendy " poetry that influenced many generations of post-modern writing.
