The Voyage of Yours

Who can imagine that
to recall you falls on this kind of way.
You have once said that
this is the life we're going to pay.

Here, I am on shore,
watching you boarding the ship
for being a sailor you're meant to be,
drifting to the other side you will see.

By the time your shadow
draws back to a needle
piercing hearts of a huddle
and leaves them a moment
recalled
of transient being.
And the world is still spinning.

Life as Dynamic in Nude: Masterpieces from Tate

Image
Exploring human bodies with life in Nude: Masterpieces from Tate is such a tempting idea. Though body may not be a new topic nowadays, it still flourishes in the artistic fields from the ancient to the modern times. Held in Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, the exhibition unfolds great vitality that pushes forward the thoughts in a variety of relative issues on human body. From the paintings before the 20th century to the modern style of body portraits implicitly reflects the perspective of artists as well as the turbulent period of history. Under the artists' interpretation, most of the paintings before the 20th century emphasize women's naked bodies as perfection of nature created by God. It appears that human body is not only like a model but also like a motor as artists keep going and never end up imagining delicate and young life from their gazes, for men and women's naked bodies are plump and smooth-skinned as well shaped by artists' visual fantasy. Their b...

A Depressed One

The sense of anxiety never fades when I become happy. One achieves something and then begins to worry about the next thing that has not done yet. Anxiety loves to tickle me, and I believe I am not the only one, especially in the aspect of society. Thinking about the age, the social experiences and the future, one's lifetime is such a blink as one keeps dealing with trouble made by others or self. Busy or not, the question that always flickers in my mind is the place where I can go. Still have no clue though. To have a high-paying job, to get married and to have a child...etc. Are these really the ultimate goals in my life? Having these can be happier than having none. However, it's like one turns out a sinner if he or she does not get married and furthermore has a family. It's also like one becomes wrong if having a sense of confusion along the way, not to mention one's anxiety. Society is hardly the one to be blamed, for it only pushes people to go forward by enteri...

To Sing in What Way

Image
     Well, as I've mentioned beforehand, I still hope I can sing better and better in a short period of time. Today, yes, I'm making progress again and it makes me "a bit" delighted, honestly. But there is a problem that I cannot follow the tune of  accompaniment very well 'cause I've ever had experiences and ideas for doing this kind of performance, which means it's strange for me to sing like this way in front of everyone. The outcome is not so good anyway, but I'd like to try it next time. Furthermore, Mr. Ruan believes I can sing, then I have no objection to make myself being non-confident, which I truly consider for myself so far.       Back home, I watch Glee for Season 1 in the episode 18.       Rachael, who was a singing leader from Glee Club , lost her voice because of the  tonsillitis. In this episode, I had never seen she was off-key in singing. It surprised me a lot 'cause Rachael was always t...

An Echo of You

We are others, we are the others. There is no way out as we strenuously seek it out. None of them can easily be found. We call it out, now we call the way that may give us sounds ─ An echo of the lingered inhale, exhale hardly can be spewed by the telltale as we are forced to fail, to expel from the world of yours, hell ─ Some say we've been changed, "the ones better or worse?" Perhaps better, otherwise neither. Is there a way out? ─ One strenuously seeks it out ─ You, the others, without making any noise, taken from the loop of our mind whomping in every circle of its swerves ─ beating against the sill ─ you call it out, now you call ─ But none of them can be heard. You, the others, or others become in you?

Spacegaze

He was about to come in. As he looked around in the room, he thought the way of living in another world. Nothing dazzling, but it was as if being caught in a standstill. That he wished to move forward as much as he could, to be pushed forward, or to be motivated by something was the current plight by which he profoundly reckoned; nonetheless no one seemed to hear his voice afar. The shadows were pining away through his quirky angle, away from others with a certain image in which he once behaved. That was when he shrugged, truly be set aside as assuming that there were some gems within. Not knowing the way he became callous about, he could have saved his energy and then been sent out. How all occasions did against him of everything that gradually loosened made him finally know, as if he had always known that the feeling would have happened in such a way. A thought, twenty percent duty, thirty percent volatility and fifty percent anxiety, he took it for sure in crystals. Looking back and...
