Stranger

Is it strange, stranger, strangest? Was it always viewed as a verb? So always in comparison of something else. I wish I could easily be a voyeur. But its too difficult to do that because my representation is in a very real realm. How how how does this become an abstract? So stupidly real this is. But I promise my builtform will be completely an abstract. Completely frivolous, completely indecent and completely unreal. It just cannot and will not be real. It will be like reading a book. You can draw your own images out of it. Because there is no visual that is given, even if it is fully described, to the detail of the colour and the size of the ant on the pavement. You will still manage as many images as readers. Something in the builtform has to give way to connecting a metaphysic. Connecting not the obvious, but something that isnt tactile or quantifiable. How? The builtform after all is real, is present, is on the ground and even if it has no dialogue with anything around, it still remains present. And really there is nothing further to that. How do you represent a book in architecture?

..

you are in another place and so am i.
though destiny will always wait for everything that hasnt happened yet,
my fate directions me to see you.
and not look thru,to hold you,
and let time slip by.
to let urgency take back and fill up the bowl of emptiness,
but i only have to leave now,
i have to,
cause this wait doesnt make me smile anymore.
in the so many oceans that have passed,
i can read the stories of the oceans still to come,
and though i shall stand at the shore of each and everyone of them,
i cannot say i am waiting for any one of them to return.
the pain is acute,
and words only make me stronger.
i want to break myself down,
the pain must settle in.
i want you,
i want you
and i want only you.
