What makes people tick? Life can be a trap of ennui, but imagery may be a redemptive escape from dullness. The iconic power and exuberance of images generate an inexorable addiction that needs to be gratified without respite. Here and now!

– Erik Pevernagie –

I was wandering

lonely and lost,

till the music you played

pulled my soul into a vortex of emotions,

reminding me that I was still alive

– Vijaya Gowrisankar –

i wait and wait

sleepwalk the hourglass

this way and that

the pendulum swings …

under dying sky

this thirst and hunger …

The Creatures – Killing Time

– Wislawa Szymborska –

making love not one thing or the other

– Ikkyu –

Someone sits at a table or lies on a sofa while staring motionless at a wall or ceiling. Once in a while this person writes down seven lines, only to cross out one of them 15 minutes later, and then another hour passes, during which nothing happens. Who could stand to watch this kind of thing?
