[DISTORTED] ⬝ ... ‘DO YOU FEEL IT, WATCHING IT ALL FALL APART / LIKE A JIGSAW PUZZLE YOU’LL NEVER FINISH?’

You find yourself adrift in a world that no longer makes sense—its edges blurred, its rules fragmented, slipping through your fingers like sand. There is a quiet stillness to it, a gentle, almost unbearable pressure that lingers in the air, as though everything familiar has been swept away and replaced by something that cannot be named. The faces around you seem to shift, their expressions unreadable, while the moments pass by, neither meaningful nor meaningless, but simply there, (&.) like the pages of a book that you can never finish, no matter how hard you try.

Here you stand, suspended in the quiet gap between what you held so tight and what now slips away, elusive. The unease isn't a burden, but a presence—like a forgotten tune lingering just out of reach. You try to grasp it, but absurdity wraps itself around everything, each thought a question left unanswered. Still, you search, hoping for an answer that will never come, and yet, you drift forward, untethered, in a world that no longer seems to belong to anyone, not even you.

STILL, I KEEP GOING,
BECAUSE WHAT ELSE IS
THERE TO DO?
