How Does It Feel Going Under Drowning - Fake News
Experimenting, playing with, and integrating language by using audio, printed, and visual media in the spirit of Bertolt Brecht’s pedagogy helps in creating reflective, thoughtful audience responses.
In producing this experimental genre through the critical application and development of language by morphing the characteristics of poems and prose leads to dramatically witnessing contemporary life through a surreal filter.
There is a strong emphasis on the image over the narrative.
The process becomes stronger when reading this new media aloud and designing an echoing pattern for a more rounded effect.
Here there is a sharp contrast between using the best words in the best order: poetry and in comparing words in their best order: prose.
Powerful feelings are poetry’s strength. What if these can flow from margin to margin free from rhyme and metre? The prose poem is the third way and becomes the guiding beacon for this experimental media. LogicPro and FCP support this process.
How Does It Feel Going Under Drowning
How does it feel
Going under drowning
From extremist fictions
Kicking around my mine?
Gasping fighting
Desperately thinking
Reasoning informing hope
Over false statements.
How does it feel
Living new worlds
Surfacing free from tyranny
Overcoming threatening beliefs?
Falsely misappropriating ideas
Stop megaphone bullying
Echoing in a shallow cave
Whose villainous values are these?
How does it feel
Rising from the stormy seas
Gasping fresh air
Feeding the brain?
Living in peace harmony and love
Thoughtfully using rationality
Creating informing minds
Needs your attention to thrive.
