Veer to the far side

About Me

Many may view me as a sea of calm, unassuming, seemingly uninterested in what’s about me. A guise shun of optimism. I tend to render the world through images, abstract, symbolic veering to a darker reality, my humour likewise. Words strung to prove a point rarely escape. Not that I don’t have any but rather lack the need to exert verbally. Frustrating, maybe. Creativity allows that vent to be exorcised. Cycles of inspiration prove mixed results. I often find pathos through others offerings, rarely my own. More of an observer, the narrative pushes past like the window from a high speed train. Blurs of the familiar woven in faces, abandoned rooms, fractured pavements and ruptured neon. Figments bound to a city - Perdition. I feel the strands of life’s efforts will eventually culminate to that pinnacle of personal sense, a stream unstoppable until spent to vapour. A mortal’s work ephemeral until released in context. How do the pieces fit or come together? And ultimately is it worth the wait? Maybe the journey is the point. I hope so.

I'm on FACEBOOK too..................
"Through me the way into the suffering city,
Through me the way to the eternal pain,
Through me the way that runs among the lost.
Justice urged on my high artificer;
My maker was divine authority,
The highest wisdom, and the primal love.
Before me nothing but eternal things were made,
And I endure eternally.
Abandon every hope, ye who enter here."
