Microessay: Writing genre belonging to essay, very brief, yet it may and must contain literary characteristics; and which, without providing arguments, expresses an idea, a thought, a feeling… Conducting the reader into a further thinking.
Example:
“American films
Taught me Nazis aren’t even real people.”
Which further meaning relies on dehumanization…
A hut.
Here you have got to: A sheet roof in plain wilderness.
And it rains, it rains hard.
And it has leaks, and you are poorly covered.
Yet it isn’t the first time it rains.
You know it will stop.
But you can’t feel it will.
You cannot see through, all your sense says it won’t end.
You could get out, but the factory burnt.
And it’s raining acid..
You could get out, but the factory burned twenty years ago.
And acid rained.
It is nothing but water.
It only rains water.
Over you, just like over anyone else.
How is that special?
The factory burned twenty years ago,
And you still think it’s raining acid
You can’t get out of your own mind!
But the rain fades out, for that’s its law
And you, fool,
Who twenty years ago would’ve dance in the puddles,
In those of water, acid and fire,
That is the other extreme, which egoism would choose,
But which hurts even more those surronding you.
And it keeps on raining…
The factory burned.
The water is acid.
It will never end, it will never end…
But it does, for it’s its law.
Never because you,
Could have leaked out from self-deceit…

/The Evil Dude/
I was going to divide this in parts, perhaps nights. But, to me, this has been but a day, a real long day.
Yes. We have spoken.
/And that’s how you get the square root of pi/.
\So you can square a circle\.
/Yes, if you do the math/.
\I didn’t really ask, so…\.
/When people say jump, you say how high/.
Notes were taken, heavy decisions were made.
\Sure\.
/Love is a tool, used to control others/.
\”When people say jump, you say how high”\.
/What about that?/.
\That seems like love to me\.
