#empty except for

[dreamer434]

Whenever you read that one thing is associated with another your mind makes an intuitive leap and its not just your mind. Most minds do this and they do this so often and so naturally that it is hard to notice. Your mind takes the data that I read you and smoothly glides to the conclusion that one of the two things must be causing the other. After all, smells are usually caused by something, not the cause of something. So your mind gently arrives without your even noticing it at the conclusion that the pool smell is caused by chlorine. It makes intuitive sense in fact you probably know the smell as the chlorine smell. But is that conclusion true?

escapril days two (the exact middle), three (empty except for), and four (ghost)

day one

[hirschkrone]

Seule une voiture

Fauvette

Tu te sauves

À la sauvette

Chez les fauves

  Tu défies les lois de la fatigue

Et tu prends le pli

Tu te défiles dans les plis de la nuit

Moteur ronronnant le long des rues vides

  Vers le cœur du silence

Dis-moi s’il nous absorbe

Si l’adrénaline

Te ravit te transporte

Aussi loin que ce taxi

Dans la nuit déserte

  Et si la révolte

Fait barrage

A l’ennui

«day 3: empty, except for___»☁️

how has been escapril2021 for you guys? for me has been fun. doing the drawings for my poems has been interesting. I did a project for my poetry course last semester like this. it is good for me to continue to practice both my writing and drawing ability. I am still a newbie in drawing, so all my reference comes from pinterest.

I tried mirroring the two stanzas with this feeling of numbness it in two different scenarios. I struggle a lot last year and numbing myself was my way to cope with it. is not the best, I know but I am trying.

«this is my trying, by taylor swift» is playing in the background.

Volley the first serve matching the range to one's domain.

Let the strange variables call the shots.

Does the sport's function amount to anything beyond its formulaic environment?

Let the degrees of freedom figure one's lot.
