Cool

Maaike Schoonderwoerd mailde de foto van Rebecca Näff. Woensdagavond 19 september is ze op de Rotary. Met één klik op Google (misschien nog op deze link) trof ik de dichtregel op haar prachtige outfit: "Cool isn't a oneway street". Kleding en sociale media als identiteit.

Cool isn't one way street.
Cool isn't black and white.
Cool isn't transient or tangible.
Cool isn't losing yourself to somebody else.
Cool isn't perfect.
Cool isn't artificial.
Cool isn't having to depend on a guy.
Cool isn't pretending to be somebody else.
Cool isn't forgetting where you came from.
Cool isn't genetically modified.

Het gedicht gaat door met Cool als zinnenaanvultest. Het eindigt met "Maybe the coolest thing in the world is idealism.The passion that comes from believing in something bigger than yourself. Cool isn't just a badge you wear but a choice you make, fight, believe in.You + The world. What could be cooler than that?" Identiteit (van Rebecca Näff? ) uitgedrukt in een levensgedicht.
