Help me title this poem. Being young and energetic has its own challenges. Have you been out in the nightlife just going along with your peers and the flow of the moment. Try to observe the motive and the relentless effort of people trying to capitalize on fleeting moments of opportunity. Pursuing to impress one another to win a genuine glimpse of interest from others in order to fill-in some internal void. Life is always on a constant motion and we orbit along with it. Fortunately and unfortunately, it is hard for us to realize the speed and the direction of the motion; unless of course you take yourself out of the flow and attempt to see the motion from a corner of an outside perspective. We are all linked to each other and to the circumstances that define the moment and ultimately define us. So it is indeed hard to detach from the life you live, and look at things from an outside point of view. However, sometimes whether by choice or by accident we are able to see things, and feel we have a good sense of the world in front of us. The word we ourselves actually live in.
Thus far I have not been able to come up with a fitting title for this 4:30 am Tigrigna poem of mine. I did consider titling it void, E'mqotn rHqetn (ዕምቆትን ርሕቀትን) as well as Haftn S'Enetn (ሃፍትን ስእነትን), but still I feel none of these are quite fitting. So what would you title it?
Cheers,
Daniel
