Storm Freak Sonata

Image
  Storm Freak Sonata Rain like acid jazz, a syncopated madness, beating down, slicking skin, drenching the last good thought out of my skull,  but there’s no time for that, no time at all. The world is slanted, twisted, tilting, gravity’s a cheap trick, a con job, a dealer with slick hands and bad intentions. I lurch forward, or maybe sideways, or maybe, I’m just floating, arms tangled in the chaos, fingers clawing at the thick, swollen air. Somewhere behind me, above me, inside me, the wreckage hums, blackened metal and forgotten ghosts rattling their chains, but I keep moving, because stopping, is a death wish signed in the blood of the wasted. The rain won’t stop. The night won’t stop. Nothing stops. And maybe that’s my sucker punch.

We Are Suspended In Transit

Image
  We are in Transit Poem: We step forward. Each step stirs dust into the air. The dry, shifting evening air. The sun is neither fully risen nor a witness. A silent guardian. Beginnings and endings, both here and just. At this hour. And yet shared. This is where time unravels. Where place dissolves and where movement lingers without. No words, no destination. This is the place. This is the sacred space. Each step cannot ignore faith. Where time unravels. Where movement lingers without end. A witness, a silent guardian. Beginnings and endings. Both here in the distance. The burden we carry is more than we thought. It is more than it is more than distance. It's the stories waiting to be uncovered. And the bond we strengthen along the way. Unanswered questions. Deferred dreams. The hope, the hope of arrival, leads us forward. At this threshold, we are neither lost nor found. We walk in the in-between. Each step whispers. Here we are. Here we are in the middle, in the middle and transit...

Rediscovering Inner Peace and Strength

Image
  Rediscovering Inner Peace and Strength  Poem Hey there, fellow nature lovers.   I'm thrilled to share with you. This is how I self-reflect. Behind a small waterfall,  I think about myself in this world. In this small space, the world is majestic.  As the water cascades down into the pool.  It's the sound of water that never fails to silence my brain.  The sound comforts me.  This waterfall has become my sanctuary.  It's here where I find solitude and peace,  Far from the hustle and bustle of daily life.  Amidst its tranquil surroundings,  I can truly connect with myself and rediscover my inner strength.  So, if you can find a small space to be with yourself, Be sure to take some time to soak up the world's beauty. Rediscovering Inner Peace and Strength on YouTube Description: Hey there, fellow nature lovers. I'm excited to share how I find peace and self-reflection behind a small waterfall. In this serene spot, I co...

Entering Manila

Image
  I'm entering Manila. Under the Metro Manila Skyway.  I'm in the shadows. The tropical sunshine creates theatrical veils. Two motorcycle riders move with an effortless grace that speaks of freedom. They weave through traffic, a fluid dance amid the fast cars and large trucks. This scene is enchanting despite the seeming danger.  The motorcycle riders are exposed and vulnerable. Yet they dance in and out of traffic with certainty and control.  Searching for safe passage through transient unoccupied space. Their journey compliments my experience as a tourist. Cocooned in my protected machine of steel, plastic and rubber. JJFBbennett https://jjfbbennett.taplink.ws/ John Bennett - AKA JJFBbennett, is an independent artist.

This way to Manila

Image
  This way to Manila. At Tagaytay's heart, a roundabout stands. Where history whispers from within. Of freedom and the struggle for democracy. Commemorating Tagaytay Liberation Day. Ninoy Aquino stands here.  A statue of hope. A symbol of the people's voice. A nation's cry for change. This roundabout symbolises the crossroads of history. And of Filipino spirit and resilience.

Generational Change

Image
 The Shores of Generational Change. Industrialization shifted us from soil to cities. We altered our core. From the fields to factories. We left behind centuries of wisdom. Our age-old stories began to fade. In a single gap in the chain. Generations of wisdom vanish. How do we reconnect with this wisdom?

Working Harder and Getting Further Behind

Image
  We're working harder than ever but getting further behind. Our efforts have intensified as we strive to achieve more. Despite our increased dedication, we find ourselves falling further back. We are putting in more hours and energy than before. Our commitment to the task has strengthened, yet our progress is lagging. The intensity of our work has risen, but our distance from the goal is increasing. Although we exert more effort, we're still moving away from our objectives. We've ramped up our work ethic, but we're not making the desired advancements. Work Harder Video JJFBbennett https://jjfbbennett.taplink.ws/ John Bennett - AKA JJFBbennett, is an independent artist.

The Long Leash

  A fabricated freedom of expression. A leash as a chain. Sometimes and even more. Standing silent. In the shadows. Just two or three degrees away.

Silent and Co-existent

Image
  Silent and Co-existent poem The lounge was filled with strangers waiting for their flight. Despite the unspoken communion, the author felt isolated. The author was anxious about the possibility of a delayed or cancelled flight. Others in the lounge were also battling their uncertainties. The experience was both physical and emotional. Patience, resilience, and a willingness to confront frustration were required. The wait was temporary and would soon be over. Everyone was determined to refrain from demonstrating their inabilities. The sense of isolation was difficult to shake. The wait required a strong sense of control. The uncertainty of the situation was overwhelming. The wait required a sense of community. The experience was one of shared struggle. The wait required a willingness to confront one's own limitations. The sense of anticipation was palpable. The wait required a sense of determination. The experience required a sense of perspective. The wait was a test of one's ...

The Defined Gated Delusion

Image
Gated Delusion The primary purpose of the hall in the gallery is to create a sense of presence in the present moment. It is an empty space that allows visitors to feel as if they have been there but also not been there. The room's design subtly influences the participants' values through external factors. Within each gate, personal gatekeepers appear and tell the participants that their negative thoughts and beliefs are holding them back. The predicament promotes disorderly placement through complex subconscious decision-making. But, the environment ultimately intends to control decisions through subtle and intentional influence. Many at once. A unique and thought-provoking manifestation that aims to create a sense of presence and self-awareness in those who experience its being. A deeper understanding and appreciation of the self is acquired through this purpose-built experience. NFT The translucence beauty of the hall knowingly manipulates and deceives the participants to rea...

Branch Breeze Orange Triptych

Image
Poem When I seek shelter. I am anxious. Panicked by the cacophony of advice. From all those loaded up. With their wheelbarrows and bags of emotional weight. I am delayed and postponed. My dreams ruined. Locked into procrastination. I the belittled consumer. Attached to every cause. Designed by those more intelligent than me. And then I downloaded a new app. Now I am mindful. In my cage. Vignette Without feeling devastated, I never fully realized my inattention ruined my dreams of myself — so many distractions locked me into an internal misconception. It takes as much energy to procrastinate as to invest in what I want.  The self-effort it takes to delude and believe in each product's message. As one of the target audience, I convinced myself to register, acquire, and purchase. My step forward is the seller's goal. Everywhere I venture, I partake as part of their moral purpose. I feel good as their faulted consumer.  They know how to relieve me of my dread. My acquisition is mi...

Travel Lake Bennett

Image
  It only takes the slightest breeze. After each sunset. Before the problems of the day are resolved. The bludgeoned crawl out. To reclaim some dignity. And some semblance of affinity with living. And their efficacy to feel beautiful. The opportunity to refract and diverge with their whispers. If you want to listen to them. 3am in the morning. When the void sets in. And all daily grinds transpire. Stone cold awake. Then night allows your creativity. The force denied brilliant struggle. By stripping away your defenses. You wake up and feel the affinity. The moon, stars, and clouds. Listen to your reptilian cycle. Before the window closes. And you have forgotten the introspection. Quiet conversations. On whatever breeze chances by. No longer demanding hardened options. Or decisive actions. Just being aware of stillness. As an uncomplicated opportunity. When elsewhere else has none. Claim this moment. To be within yourself. Translucent memories. Whispering for your return. To childhoo...

Artist Statement Somewhere Adrift

Image
  Poem Modernism and Promised Prosperity We were glorious when we were young. Having a new and influential way of looking at the world. Free of the arguments from illusion, visionary dreams, and the solitary evil genius. We concentrated on the inner-urban. That was until we arrived And dismissed our problems without evidence. Through powerful leaders doing God’s work. Artist Statement video Somewhere Adrift Since I can remember, Australia's values have been under threat. I am talking about the fear of losing the innate grace, that is,  the subjective sense of the Australian way. The threat list is long and most are foreign. The reported attacks by mass media are external to Australia's W.A.S.P. heritage. They are the values for what our soldiers died for. The land down under, adrift in Asia. We Australians have been under the threat of potential invasion since the frontier wars. The fear is a deep-rooted "settler country" psychosis. And it gets whipped up by politica...
