MY BROTHER ALİ RIZA GELİRLİ WROTE LIKE A SCORPION
You question the commercial basis of the war; You are unaware of your moral foundations, brother. I call you my brother, because we are members of the same living being; I can't find another adjective. You don't think about why the paths of war are so crowded and why the paths of peace are so lonely. There are man-eating people, sharp precipices and stench on the paths of war. Doves on the roads of peace... Anyone who can use a little conscience knows more or less the condition of those roads. What is being told to you is not the story of people, but of the armed forces of states. Wanting war is patriotism; You think wanting peace is treason. How strange, do you always have to be "like a scorpion", brother?
I want to live in the world that seems sacred to me. One day I will withdraw from life like an artist withdraws from the art world. But first I have to explain everything to you. Let life continue with its usual meaning and meaninglessness. Why should you have to be satisfied with my every behavior, brother? Let me get to the top of this day. What could be more attractive to me than this?
Remove your culture, your morals and all their shadows from me. Stop pretending to be a state to me. Never come to me without purifying yourself from the dirt of arrogance. Everyone is as good as their container holds; Don't keep telling me how good it is. For once, allow yourself a luxury that even God does not allow yourself, and be self-critical, my brother.
Surprise me, buy flowers from the flower market, for example. Get out of your memorizations, where people talk as if they were suffering from a fever. You always want me to be like an ironed shirt, but you're wrinkled, bro. Likewise, you question even the right thing with the wrong personality. Don't you realize this? Both your state of war and your tranquility dominate me. Actually, you don't even know what tranquility is.
You are hungry, you are tired, but your mouth is like a "pandora's box" bro. "And you're awful like the mouth of an extinct volcano, bro." Do you always have to be "like a scorpion"?
Go, get to know women, fall in love; they all have different fault lines, they are like big ships, passing through the deepest waters and the calmest ones. They will take you to the port. For example, they know a type of war called "love"; you better learn it too, brother. In this war, your heart will be broken the most, then someone else will fix it... Don't worry, you won't die... It has to be the scorpion that stings its own kind. You are not, brother.
