decadence

“the devil pulls the strings which make us dance
we find delight in the most loathsome things
some furtherance of hell each new day brings
and yet we feel no horror in that rank advance”

– charles baudelaire

the devil inside

the devil inside

painted on a wall

rampaging, pillaging, corrupting

external terror

the darkness

in our hearts?

gone

“memories warm you up from the inside
but they also tear you apart”

― haruki murakami, kafka on the shore

Crush the buildings.

Bludgeon those who dare to care.

But.

They will. Remember.

photography101: triumph

“They will not control us,
We will be victorious”

– Muse, Uprising

triumph inside

Razorwire.

They lock me in.

They are the men with bulldozers and hammers.

They are my memories.

Of words said. Words unsaid. Words never acted on. Doors left unopened.

I can recognise, accept.

I can survive.

If I choose.

“Sealand forgets her friends
She’ll not leave them again
Mother, sister and home
These arms fail you so”
