Hole in the Wall: Pool Time

Hole in the Wall: Pool Time
I wanted to fly to another planet, but I first built this swimming pool.
My dreams just started getting away from me, and then I let them go.

In the heat of the day, I plunge into my pool.
My refreshing water.
I own it. I work for it.
When I'm tired of my thoughts I submerge into it.
When I'm confused and in panic, I fall gently into it.
I emerge feeling invigorated and comforted.
Continuation seems so easy once and only after submerging in my cool clear water.

My dreams to transform my life never eventuated.
I knew it once, when  I was promised myself to achieve.
I could aspire.
You never fail when you attempt to chase.

Somewhere I needed to reconcile between the obtainable haves and impossible wants.
Have I succumbed to failed by fabricating my mediocrity prison of pleasure?
Am I floating in falsehood
Am I wallowing in water of hindrance?
I built and tender to this my own 3-meter submersion of comfort.

In my moment before death, will my pool be there in easy memory?
Will it be replaced by morphine?
Will regrets of attainment hound me?.
Will I feel satisfied?
Will I discover what I was born for?

Whilst under water nothing eventuates.
I feel released.
Whilst under water the world passes me by.
I can just watch.
I feel contented.
I am no longer the wonder.
I am just here wanting to feel good.
In happiness for the now and in happiness for the tomorrow.

Choices and Daily Rituals

  Video: Choices and Daily Rituals Story: I see them daily, following the same routine, saying the same things, and living the same day repeatedly. They take identical pictures and check their reflections on every surface. The world is vast, full of opportunities and choices, but they, like me, wear dark glasses as they go through life. I wish I could shake myself and realise the chances I'm missing, but I'm in a trance, convinced that this narrow path is all there is. Existence keeps moving on, and it pains me that I can't see past the capital waste. We could achieve so much if we didn't sit on the fence and merely comment on each other. But here I am, watching this play with the spectators, where the power to change the script is on the tip of our tongues, yet we decide not to say it. Description: Dive into the profound narrative of life in repetition, where each day mirrors the last. This exploration goes beyond the surface, questioning the comfort of routine and the

Generations Lost

Lost and Gone Tunnel Dog  Generations Lost - The Dark Jazz Chronicle Poem - Song The Funnel We tiptoe on an obscure path. As like shining stars. Sinking each and every night. As we continually inch forward. Bound by our unspoken agendas Years and years? Generations and generations? Lost and gone. I can no longer see a post-capitalist society. I can only see the continuous burden of millions. Minced into meta pulp.  Reluctant to deviate. Years and years? Generations and generations? Lost and gone. So many fluorescent lights. Destroyed the night sky Drowned through hope and desperation. Bound together and shattered. Years and years? Generations and generations? Lost and gone. Lost and Gone Tunnel Dog Dive into the haunting world of Dark Jazz with "The Funnel," a mesmerizing musical journey through the obscure pathways of our collective psyche. Set against a backdrop of dimly lit lights and unspoken agendas, this video captures the essence of generational despair and the relentl
