Fluke
labyrinth Oct 2021
You’re the only one
Who understood me
Yet, that was just a
Misunderstanding
A mediocre translation from Turkish colloquial

Head
labyrinth Oct 2021
Fish rots from the head
And, that being said

Look around you, all the heads
Commanders, bosses, presidents

We are living in **** holes
Created by them filthy souls

Let me let you know
When you get scared
That’s an immunity flaw

Today’s biggest ordeals

Tick-Tack

Looking really generous
While acting penurious
That is a twisted paradigm
Yet, looks good on the “time”

Toughy
labyrinth Oct 2021
Seated in my lonely booth
Checking all sorts of goings-on
Of all things, nothing but the truth
I figured, is the most relative one
labyrinth Oct 2021
Up until they reach your *****
Strech your ***** toward your backs
Then, on behalf of the masses
Kindly go **** yourselves

About The Reunion
labyrinth Sep 2021
Between 1999 and 2008
Nine good years straight
I lived in New York as a regular
When FRIENDS was so popular

Now I heard they’re uniting again
I hope they’re not disturbing the den
Hibernators shouldn’t be touched
Most can’t really offer that much

Self Deception
labyrinth Jul 2021
By the Aegean Sea
Meltemi’s talking to me
Under the shadow
Of the plum tree

And I voluntarily mistake
Tree-crickets for silence
As they, too, today
Bring as much peace

I’ll always believe in your lies
I don’t care about your honesty
Every time I look in your eyes
You’ll have a general amnesty

Effective
labyrinth Jul 2021
Of course I can
Close my eyes to all
The bad things
Take place around me
Or in the whole world
For that matter
And start chilling
I simply don’t
Find it effective
That’s all

New York Days
labyrinth Jun 2021
Thia’s coming
An old friend from US
An old friend from the past
Thia’s coming
So are some memories
Now, I’m older than ever
But, that’s not the point here
Thia’s coming
Along with her friend Tre
So are some of my NY days
That I’m having hard time
To remember nowadays
And, that feels almost like crime
My good old friend from the states paid me a visit in Istanbul after 17 years. I’m so happy

Father’s Day
labyrinth Jun 2021
When I think of
The fathers loved
Without even deserving
I conclude that the position
Is rather more important
Than the occupant

Befuddled
labyrinth Jun 2021
They told me
“If I change,
The world changes”.
Well, I did.
But it didn’t
Or maybe it did.
Well, I don’t know.

Fearing your own breath
Colleagues, family, friends
Potential causes of your death

The Figures

I have seen the figures alright
160 million out of all labor forces
Are basically children. That’s right
Thanks to politicians. Thanks to bosses

All you need to hear
Is a good “*******”

I’ll simply let it be
Problem of another

To launch a less fighting,
More loving versions of
Humans into the markets
Thanks

Need
labyrinth May 2021
All I needed was
A pair of arms hugging me
A mind thinking of me
A heart beating for me
A body lied down next to me
In four different addresses

Sunday has certainly lost its crown
Over the other six during the lockdown
labyrinth May 2021
As long as “you” is not from
A different color,
A different neighborhood,
A different class,
A different religion
A different income level
A different political party
A different country
Especially that of a third-world
A different gender
Especially that of a third one
Do not, at all, worry
You’re loved here dearly

LIKE A MILK BOTTLE
labyrinth Apr 2021
Stamped somewhere near
Our **** or behind the ear

I wish there really was
An expiration date on each of us

Being aware that we'll die in the end
We'd behave more reasonable then

Being aware how much time's left
We'd seek what life really meant
