Nah man. Never. Non-existence sounds cool if you imagine it as "being free" or existing without suffering, but it's not that. You never feel the relief from offing yourself. You just stop being, there is no freedom.
Or, if God actually exists, you go to hell, which is also very bad

Through the shattered lenses, I heed the foregoing call from that which lies in the east: O tilted gecko! I see the colorful scales light up all worlds above and below, all things that make dreamy dwelling in the micro and macro. Oh, what sight! Honor! Gifted to me the glistening chains of rhetoric, but I float atop the softened lake akin to a messiah. Be it true! Be it just! O gecko, your scales shine within the pallid moon, or they are that selfsame orb that sends men into shameless hours of retreat from the heavy lifting of days. O gecko!-

Children unironically write the best poetry. There's an exhibit near where I live for children poetry. Adults play with fancy forms and words l, but I've never felt raw emotion from reading it the way I do whe reading child poetry. They can say just the right thing, often in less the six lines. I don't know how they manage to pick just the right words, but they do.

>>13528201
Who publishes this? I'm really curious.

>>13529189
Michael Jackson said artists need to 'get out of the music' and let it do it's thing. I think people overcontemplate too much so they don't produce raw emotion

>>13528201
'why' is very beautiful and pushes on the very real wound that American and European zoomers have on them, the Russian association is a fair overemphasis but has truth in it since it is a state organised differently.
Many young peoples natural interests aren't being flourished, they're not being pushed to be great at anything other than capital accumulation both by their parents and society surrounding them.
It's like children are expected to become great at things themselves while being surrounded in screens fighting for your attention to watch ads in-between entertainment which the parents are glued to too. Not being allowed to grow, not having a genuine teacher or a supporting parent. Just being a battery for capital.
It's not a very well written poem but that's somewhat symbolical to what it is stating, the poem doesn't need to be great, no one is expecting it to be great, just hoping it will sell well and create an artificial common interest between manufactured schizophrenics. Seeing idiots here say it's worth less than completely empty gibberish is wrong.

Genuinely can't tell if this is fake or not

>>13531136
It's really hard to put into words.
The fact that I live in a third-world shithole joke of a country which is being fetishised by all sorts of degenerates for various reasons which aren't true (White nationalists think that Russia is the last bastion of the white race and that Putin actually cares for white people and that all Russians are white etc. etc.; Commies praise Russia for it's past and reminisce at how 'great' Soviet union was, when in fact it was the worst period of Russia's history; Incels and virgins who fetishise russian women and who unironically think that they are any different from their women or are feminine/traditional/racist/beautiful/smart/whatever quality they come up with.)

Russia is probably one of the most misinterpreted countries in the world and it bugs me BAD. People always get the wrong idea about us.

>dude, look at this 10/10 russian instathot with tons of makeup/filters, shallow 'personality' and soulless eyes, she's so fucking trad dude, I wish I had a russian gf

>>13531228
It's called 'I love myself too much to live in a third-world shithole filled with corrupt bureaucrats, whores and drunktards and I want to get a decent wage. I barely survive on $500.'

>>13531184
>when in fact it was the worst period of Russia's history;
Russia was better before the Soviet Union?

>>13531240
Yes. Why is that even a question?

>>13531234
>I barely survive on $500.
Same

>>13531243
I don't know anything about Russia's history but I already read about heavy industrialization which raised standards of living from the agrarian society. How wrong is this?

>>13531243
"Before the Russian revolution, Russia had 90% illiteracy, was a backward and virtually a colonial country (many industries were foreign owned). The communists were ruthless in suppressing dissent, had horrible human rights etc. BUT they did manage to provide a decent level of education, living standards, and industrial development, which brought it up be able to manufacture tanks by the thousand and defeat the Nazis, and become a legitimate global superpower by the 50's and 60's.

Compare for example the lack of development in Africa for a contrast."

> they did manage to provide a decent level of education
Right, go on

>decent level of living standards
U-huh, carry on

>and industrial development
The only one I can agree with. We were able to produce tons of rubber boots and metal pipes, that is true.

>which brought it up be able to manufacture tanks by the thousand and defeat the Nazis
It wasn't the tanks that won the war. Soviet Union relied massively on the land lease from the Allies. Without it USSR would've crumbled fast.

> and become a legitimate global superpower by the 50's and 60's.
A superpower where citizens have nothing to eat, are getting repressed and freedom of speech is absent. Mate.

Where is my metaphysic?! You lost it!

I think one of the weirdest features of some young-people-literature and -poetry today (I fucking hate saying “zoomers”, that itself sounds like a fucking “zoomer” coinage) is how much it seems to revel in the mundane and the un-aesthetic, even to the point of ugliness and banality. You can see this in the really common modern poetic style of free verse with minimal punctuation and minimal adornment — no metaphors, use of rhetoric, no interesting diction beyond a 9th-grade level. There’s hardly any sense of beauty, of aestheticizing reality. Instead, it’s about some bland and only semi-creative “self-expression”. There’s hardly a sense of physical reality in some of the poetry either, of creating scenery or expressing the beautiful or interesting aspect of objects, or nature, etc. Instead, it takes place in a curiously anti-visual, vague world populated by the speaker’s own solipsistic thoughts and emotions and maybe the occasional references to technology and modern products.

Another trait is the curious fact that its favorite emotion is no-emotion. The poetry is anhedonic, dry. Any outburst of sincere and passionate emotion is seen as something icky, weird, old-fashioned. In fact, even when the poetry/literature gets into the topic of depression (itself a fairly large theme in modern-young-people-literature), it won’t do this in terms of some passionate Hamlet-like or Byronesque outburst; instead, it’ll talk about it in terms of the absolutely mundane, like with the inevitable product placements and references to modern technology addiction, something like:

Depression
By Zoomer

today
i ate
a whole tub of
Ben & Jerry’s™ Rocky Road ice-cream
while watching
four seasons in a row of
Orange Is the New Black on
Netflix

Writing poetry can be good for you. I like to read mine in a Welsh accent makes it sound respectable.

No one touch or to speak to
Could this be cause for alarm
Though the cosy return is too much.
Through the rain window and down
distant lights amassed
they pause me in thought
who is down there
and what are they doing right now
I am glad they are there now
the cosy return to me
is too much
Maybe they managed to find somewhere sheltered
And now they are
Or perhaps they have been caught
And now they are

>>13531786
Nicely put. I agree

>>13531309
before the first world war russia was the fastest growing economy in europe. it had already overtaken france and was gaining very quickly on britain and germany. with regards industry being "foreign owned" even that was decreasingly true. russians themselves started up 3x as many joint stock companies as germans in 1914.
this isnt of course to say it was on track to be a cool libtard utopia like the west but what mightve been is literally up in the air

a song lyric from the mid 70s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5bM_lIRMao

Well I've been up all night again
Party-time wasting is too much fun
Then I step back thinking
Of life's inner meaning
And my latest fling
It's the same old story
All love and glory
It's a pantomime
If you're looking for love
In a looking glass world
It's pretty hard to find
Oh mother of pearl
I wouldn't trade you
For another girl
Divine intervention
Always my intention
So I take my time
I've been looking for something
I've always wanted
But was never mine
But now I've seen that something
Just out of reach, glowing
Very Holy grail
Oh mother of pearl
Lustrous lady
Of a sacred world
Thus: even Zarathustra
Another-time-loser
Could believe in you
With every goddess a let down
Every idol a bring down
It gets you down
But the search for perfection
Your own predilection
Goes on and on and on and on
Canadian Club love
A place in the Country
Everyone's ideal
But you are my favorita
And a place in your heart dear
Makes me feel more real
Oh mother of pearl
I wouldn't change you
For the whole world
You're highbrow, holy
With lots of soul
Melancholy shimmering
Serpentine sleekness
Was always my weakness
Like a simple tune
But no dilettante
Filigree fancy
Beats the plastic you
Career girl cover
Exposed and another
Slips right into-view
Oh looking for love
In a looking glass world
Is pretty hard for you
Few throwaway kisses
The boomerang misses
Spin round and round
Fall on featherbed quilted
Faced with silk
Softly stuffed eider down
Take refuge in pleasure
Just give me your future
We'll forget your past
Oh mother of pearl
Submarine lover
In a shrinking world
Oh lonely dreamer
Your choker provokes
A picture cameo
Oh mother of pearl
So so semi-precious
In your detached world
Oh mother of pearl
I wouldn't trade you
For another girl
