In the subway
I was riding the subway today and was thinking about how much it changed for the last few years.
People with books in their hands always draw my attention. I peek at the titles, google them and read some of them too. Now we've got Kindles, Kobos, iPads and you never know what captures their reading mind today.
Few years ago you could see posters with poems of the winners of Young Poet competitions from all over Canada. It was the best advertisement I ever saw. Some poems where so sophisticated that it was hard to believe that a 16 year old kid wrote it. Some of the poems I memorized, they were so beautiful!
Today, you still see posters about literary works. But they all have one thing in common: erotic content. Why is this subject became prevalent? What does it say about us today?
If you take a snapshot of the subway interior and us, riders, would that be an accurate reflection of our society?
