Powerless to become or fall back

History is our small bedrooms when we were children

We never thought about it then did we

Hidden under our fears

Scratching the paint off the wall

Too much time to think

Too much static energy

History is a bath tub

History is powerless

What I fear most is loss of control

Of not having a floor to stand on

Of not having a future to think about

To not have a sense of self

I wish one thing after another

This I fear….running out of desire

Control is desire

Even if it is only imaginary

What I fear most of all is losing my imaginary control

 

 

Apologia is a form of practiced rhetoric that is used in self-defense or as a vindication of a person. It is common in both politics and public relations, as well as a term for analysis in genre criticism. It most frequently entails the speaker publicly expressing remorse for his or her actions. Non-apology apology functions in the same situation, but fails to admit wrongdoing. Statements that use the word “sorry” denote an apology. The result of the apology process, ideally, is the reconciliation of broken relationships.[1] The ancient origin of apologia traces back to the ancient Greek root word apologos, meaning “a story.” Plato, Isocrates, and Aristotle all describe apologia as a specific genre, in which an orator defends himself or his actions against an accusation.
