Eklektek is a writing repository relevant for both the diversity of the intended subjects and themes, and the philosophical aspect of thought independent of belonging. Ek is abbr for kenetic Energy; Energy stored in motion. The term lek is a type of animal mating behavior that creates a paradox within Darwinian theory... a contradiction within the "Fisherian Runaway" hypothesis explaining, among other things, the extra-ornate plumages of birds. The etymology of lek in this context is from a Swedish noun denoting pleasurable, less rule-bound games and activities, something akin to 'play'. In other fun: Logic. The smallest logic satisfying all conditions is K. Iff you enjoy weird mixed metaphors and non-sequitur then you are in the right place. Lastly, the letter K is thought to have originated from a hieroglyph of a hand, which must be found apropos to the art of writing.

الجن

Skyscraper glitters, Distant
Singular in the desert
sand etched glass
winds hollow tune
tracks of nomadic feet
faintest of impressions

The vastness
The city, long since gone
holds ghosts
twisting Djinn, spinning Djinn
here is beauty
Here is the emptiness.
Here, possibility

The tracks lead the way
The tracks lead away
