World I Want To Live In


Is a world where on the day that someone dies, someone we all know and care about, nobody writes pathetically inane comments on Twitter, nobody posts songs and pictures on Facebook, nobody writes melodramatic words of sorrow and cringe-worthy devotion.

World where nobody says anything. Where people just reread their favourite stories, rewatch their favourite films, relisten to their favourite songs. Or maybe do none of that. Just think about it for a minute or two, while the cigarette burns. While the crow flies. 

Only then can one truly appreciate what it is that happens in “Blackstar” after the fourth minute. In a world where I want to live.
