triangulations I

Lately, I have been learning techno, hard techno, and schranz. But I was also listening to some post-rock. I had an idea to mix the two genres, but it was more challenging than expected. Initially, I aimed to blend elements from these two, but it evolved into a poor post-rock wannabe, slowly turning into a lazy schranz fake. It became overwhelming to keep trying. Nevertheless, this was my first attempt. Most of the post-rock elements and schranz techno are missing. I’ll learn them one day (-_-)

boksi IV

mevsimlerin acı kahkahası kulağında
sen bakıyorsun ben bakıyorum
biz bize bakışıp
ama asıl avrupalıların incelmiş
bakışları gibi değil dik dik
dağdan indik buraya geldik
hala dağın kavgasını bitiremedik
ilk kim başlattı kimse bilmiyoruz

sakın o japon bilgeliği değil boynumuzda
yular fular bir de keçeden atkı
eklem yerlerinde yara yapan sıkıntı

bütün yaz güneş topladıktan sonra
kış boyu kıvrılıp yatacaksak
niçin uğraşıyoruz

sürekli kendimize
ve ötekilere sorular soruyoruz
freud’dan öğrendiğimiz altın dalını uzat da
sınıkçılar ovsun dört yanımızı

oysa bir bebek, bir çocuk, üç bagaj taşıyan kadın
şiiri omuzlarıyla yazınca
klavye başındakiler
koşuya çıkalım demiş murakami’yle
