Every day he seemed to fumble his feet, searching for solid ground beneath it, while only stepping
into emptiness. In a strict line of structures, a judge
stands above him on each side, assessing whether
he is what he should be. As if everything important
to experience was happening outside of him. As if
he was defined by a mere endless relating to what
had been here before, and was thus losing what
was to come. He wanted to break free from the
captivity of the past, and so he immersed himself
in his own memories. A world without traditions
seems to be running out of time. Made up of inner
feelings, both past and present, yet it perhaps captures something generic. It is not clear in it what is
a subject and what is an object; what is illusionary
and what is real. Maybe what has never been is
more real than what is.
