The jungle writhes nervously with the interplay of the cycles of the elements. An old telephone perches on the lowest branch of a gnarled oak, waves of meaning flowing from the centers of the balanced plastic bowls.

Ever without context, we feel the pull of their history like a weighted diver feels the current. We immerse ourselves, feeling the swell pull our collective core into a gradual see-saw sway. The music of sepia-toned acquisition joy gives way to indifferent utility, which surrenders to fifteen dew-displacing steps from the safety of the home, and the sharp metallic impact of the mouthpiece in its final dustbin croon. These ideas and others feint left and right, weaving and tying sheer threads from seeds of perspective unbound, sorting, arbitrating eventual conjunction onto the front and back of an opaque, polarised silk screen.

There is a tenuous juxtaposition as the slow tick of the indicator seems to coincide for a few hubritic moments with the flashing light on the dashboard. The mind is drawing order from chaos as subtleties fall from heaven to earth, cascading through mirrored and mirroring worlds, the sacred fire that blinds the gross Narcissus of uncertainty and becomes momentarily manifest in the sunlight that filters this weird canopy.

Full for the soul, the object calls to no-one and nothing. Red and green bring the meme to the brink as the witness must decide, or feel the posthumous wound of disharmony.

werribee.
peaceful night-time scenes always put me in mind of possibilities. the blackness is reminiscent of space, of a state of simplicity before life’s little complications get in the way. i could be an animal in an empty world, building what i will, reflecting one facet of a creator god. night, and the sensations and thoughts that accompany it, feel cleaner without the schedule of the day.
it’s a precious feeling, and one we need to grow.

flinders street train, hurstbridge line.
so many faceless people on trains. we’re all travellers on the same midnight highway; separated by dreams of empty words exchanged in an awkward framework. comfort is relative to set as well as setting. maybe i should just broach the subject/object. that reminds me, i want a brooch… and something fingerless of the glove family.

johnson park, northcote.
an old man in a powered weelchair is sitting at the edge of this park. weather is grey, drizzling rain. he is looking over a section of the park crisscrossed by paths and completely unremarkable to my eye. he looks up when a bus passes behind me and watches me walk past carrying a 10kg bag of rice.

this birdcage was failing to fulfill it’s function…. instead it was overgrown. we broke the vine, we weren’t even invited to the party. our ideas, hopes, and dreams fall by the side when we can’t care about anything but the sensations of the moment. but what else could there be?
we can only learn through our five senses after all.
