A person tweets

And goes another one

And then 1 billion of them

“Hey, the president just tweeted”

Where are we now?

We float away, drift away

Looking for the road to future

I cannot see the road to future

Where is my road to future?

Forgetting... towards oblivion

Is our memory information?

And yet the earth rotates, said Galileo Galilei

“Auschwitz camp never existed.”

Said a man. That’s a fabrication

A historical revisionist

The airplane never crashed into the tower

Said a woman. That’s a movie

A Sci-Fi film critic

Then what is a memory?

Can you overwrite memory?

Then what in the world is history?

Pink Floyd did fly a pig into the sky

All we wanted was to sing a love song…

That day, an airplane turned into a missile

Kamikaze?

9.11?

Hey, please

Give me a “LIKE”

Oh, it’s flaming

Here and there

Can you really believe that info?

Why do we pray when we know there is no “God”?

Hey, am I beautiful?

Hey, am I pretty?

Hey, give me more likes

More, and more, and more

If we assume info as tears

Tears flowing

Tears overflowing

Tears leaking

Tears burning

Tears fabricated

Tears deleted

Tears corrected

Tears stolen

Tears destroyed

Tears forgotten

Google

Amazon

Facebook

And

Apple

Last year on my wife’s birthday...I don’t even remember where we ate

Last year, Christmas present...I don’t remember what I got

Terrorist attacks in Paris, London, Boston...I don’t remember which one is which

What is information?

We say information is melted chocolate

I can’t recall my middle school math teacher’s face

I can’t recall my first girl’s name

I can’t recall my PIN number

If that tsunami was tears of sadness and suffering

How should we think upon?

Memory fades as time passes by

Maybe, to make us remember these fading memory

The sadness and suffering shed tears

But memories are forgotten so we can live happily, kind of

If a horrible memory forever stayed clearly, we all would go mad

Forgetting is one of the systems for us to live

That’s why when our loved ones pass away

We must keep talking about them to remember them

That’s why we make love songs

We keep singing love songs

A person tweeted

And tweeted another one, and then 1 billion of them

Where are we now?
