    This is a poem mainly about expressionism and modernism. In other words, I feel as if we're all just carrying out our usual lives without analytically dissecting and observing them.

    "To the Obsolete Romeo!" is a short play/drama that has not so effort making Romeo, a Romeo for whom money is a priority to love. He is anachronism to courtship. He believes that once he finds his muse, his love (not sure if that be Juliet) he will rule the world and overcome the infinite possibilities that are waiting for him. There will be a contrasting image to the shakespeare's Romeo but you may find the occurrences of the same in our Romeo. Since, there will be a ship-wreck drama, mystery, tragedy and may be a little bit of obnoxiousness!! Wait for it, as i reveal Scene-1.

    I try to create a dynamic in which im able to condense the entire universe into everyday physical objects, and then specifically extrapolate all of emotion into a single woman. These largely reflect on romantic considerations, some notions of self, identity, and sadness. Its just your regular teenage shitposting essentially. There are elements of formal verse, but largely the poems are free verse. Looking for the harshest criticisms possible. Narratives range from the smile of some woman, to frequent late night walks in September, adventures on a swing set, and considerations on the impact my name has had on my life.

    Step into Barcelona's Modernista age-when Barcelona's main attractions were built above streets scarred by inequality. Late 19th-century Barcelona. By forces far beyond her control, seven-year-old Núria is taken into service in the household of the powerful industrialist Eusebi Güell. Uprooted from the factory colony that shaped her, she is thrusted into a world of velvet, decandence, and anarchy. Caught between two conflicting realities-the gilded palaces of a rising industrial elite and the grinding poverty of the workers who sustain it-Núria becomes a witness to a city transforming at breathtaking speed. As chimneys rise and fortunes are made, a new artistic vision begins to take shape, led by the brilliant architect Antoni Gaudí. Through Núria's eyes, experience the birth of Barcelona as both industrial powerhouse and Catalan Modernista capital-where innovation and exploitation walk hand in hand, and every triumph has a cost. Featuring iconic figures and places woven into the story: Palau Güell, the Tragic Week, Hospital de Sant Pau... and the ever-changing soul of Barcelona itself. ***To the reader: this is the first chapter of what will hopefully become a book about Barcelona in the 19th century, from the Industrial Era to the Spanish Civil War. I hope you enjoy it!***

    My forty-one poems published in Meu Lado Poético. A profusion of themes, styles and rhythms that sometimes exude the existential chaos of the city and its dilemmas, sometimes exude some kind of calm, sometimes function as a kind of mantra that the lyrical self says to itself. I believe that my poems are powerful enough to cause some kind of strangeness in the reader and take them out of their comfort zone. It's still beginner and amateur writing, but it's gradually taking shape (I think it will be aesthetically perfected in a few years). Basically, Nameless, Beginless or Endless is made up of drafts. Poems that have not yet been revised/rewritten with a critical eye. I hope you enjoy it.

    "Who are we when we live through someone else?" A cyclical work of postmodern, surrealist fiction, shaped primarily by the influences of modernist writers such as Proust, Joyce, Woolf and Pynchon, Not So Distant Horizons asks as many questions as it answers. Simultaneously dense and concise, the writing puts a spin the stream-of-consciousness style, which was popular during the first half of the twentieth century. It's worth noting that all the traits of this book are not exclusively postmodern or surrealist. It also builds upon the style of contemporary writers. Being stuck in the past is something both the narrator and the author despise. Elements of philosophical fiction are also abundant. Tending to become someone else, the narrator chases so-called specters, perfect images of himself that he sculpted during his lifetime. Having drowned in self-pity and loneliness in the surrealist setting of the book, The Garden, the narrator begins his writing by starting to question everything from his past lifetime. Hundreds of years pass in just a few sentences. In the Garden, not a single object is reminiscent of the world he had left behind years ago in exchange for eternal solitude. It is the arrival of his childhood friend, Juno, that changes everything. Juno, acting as the driving force for the book's plot, brings with her a lot more than change. Long-buried questions resurface. They are not exclusive to the narrator; both the reader and he can ask themselves the same question: is what I am writing true? Can I rely on the story being consistent? Find out by reading the work. Still in progress and to be continued.
