For creative writing homework, I wrote a poem that reflects my love-hate relationship with the media that feed me every moment of my breath.

Love-Hate (Dear Media)

Your shatterproof omnipresence,
The Panopticon of 21st century
: I am the gifted prisoner, You be the gruesome police.

Have I created you or have you created me?
You are my mother to whom I gave a birth.
You are my child who gave a birth to me.

That mutual desire of two dispiriting vampires
acidifies my idea, my identity,
in this circle of witchcraft.
