O mnie

Ja, o mnie i jeszcze raz ja
I mourn the death of Bebo.

No, really, I do.

Okay, Facebook has its charms: better status updates, communal conversations, arguably better layout, whatever that Farmville thing is, I know. I get it. I'm not saying it's wrong.

But whatever happened to colours other than blue and white? Or poorly-designed skins advertising our favourite song lyrics, films, or song lyrics misspelled over screengrabs from films (I'm looking at you, Twilight fans)?

What happened to Bebo blogs? And navigable photo sections instead of that weird thing where your profile photos are in a separate album?

What happened to profile-contained quizzes, and polls, and friend lists that you were controversially allowed to organise?

Whatever happened to the idea of a webpage that actually looks kind of good, and not just exactly the same as every other webpage on the site?

That's what I want to know, fellow social network users. That's all.

Also, college rocks.

    A Poem Describing Our Collective Experience

    rain
    rain
    rain rain
    rain rain rain rain
    lashing rain
    more rain
    brutal crushing
    rain again
    rain rain rain
    Elbow
    cold
    still very cold
    more crushing
    are my legs asleep?
    cold cold
    cold
    lights go off
    cold and tired
    wow, I haven't eaten today
    cold cold cold
    cold
    then

    KINGS OF LEON.

    SERIOUSLY.

    And even though Caleb had broken the guitar he's had since the band got together the night before (in a "temper," quoth he), and even though he also had to leave the stage halfway through to throw up, he still insisted that he loved us very much.

    And we stood there, all aching limbs and shivering shoulders and rainwater dripping down our necks and we loved him too.

    He also said we were beautiful.

    He was standing right next to Jared at the time.

    Oh, Followills. If only you knew.

  • The Leaving

    A poem of good wishes to all my fellow students commencing their Leaving (and Junior, but especially Leaving) Cert examinations on the morrow. Let's keep calm and carry on.

    The Leaving

    This consciousness – this heightened ache
    of suncream-scented, sun-damp limbs,
    of foolscap pages littered though the house
    and stacks of shiny-covered books –
    will dull like ornaments collecting dust,
    like our lives in these home places clicking faintly to a close.

  • Inauguration Day: A Poem

    Decided to get topical on all y'alls and write a poem about history, which in this case happened today.

    Women Obscure in Their Labour

    The inauguration comes
    one month before my eighteenth birthday
    along with day-late prickling of cramps.
    My mother is in the city
    and the girls from school sign out
    to apply for university before the deadline.

    At home, I switch the television on and
    watch thousands of tiny flags blur into pink
    and my best friend texts me:
    “things are changing today”.

    This is not a love poem
    unless it is for her, or for myself,
    for the trumpet players, flag-wavers
    swaddled in coats and badges
    for Nancy, Hillary and Michelle
    for those who watch this in London
    dreaming of home and for those who
    watch at home, dreaming of Washington
    for this flush restless fertility
    which is both mine and not mine
    or somehow shared because in this
    hope – and there is hope –
    we all are bound together, each to each.
