PHOSPHOR AFTERLIFE
— what illumination refuses to relinquish
A meditation on #neonresidue as aftermath: glare migrating inward, sweetness soldered to voltage, colour surviving abrasion.

THE PUBLIC SECRET
— how reputations quietly pivot
An #affair can belong to empires as easily as to hearts—
a covert bargain,
a handshake conducted in shadow,
a headline rehearsed before dawn.
What changes first is not law,
but trajectory:

CARTILAGE CONSTELLATIONS
— a maternal cosmology of aftermath
For my mother… where grief acquires syntax, absence glows, and the body learns to carry galaxies instead of ghosts.

PUBLIC SELF

What keeps changing us

THE STATIC BETWEEN WORLDS

At night the #radio becomes a theologian—
translating storms into syllables,
turning solitude into signal.
Voices arrive freighted with weather and want,
proof that even across impossible miles

THE ARCHITECTURE OF UPHEAVAL
— how systems finally tilt
True #overthrow is rarely theatrical.
It begins in footnotes, in clauses revised,
in patience weaponised into inevitability.

THE WHISPERING MARKET
— on advertisements that know too much
When coincidence becomes choreography.
This about surveillance-adjacent convenience.
If coincidence feels crowded, secure your phone—
and switch off the settings you never meant to leave listening.

CHECKMATE WITHOUT CONTACT
— playing the game of love in gloves
When authority meets orbit.
When proximity learns etiquette.
When the 'Game of Love' is staged not with skin, but with breath, distance and exquisitely sustained restraint.

THE DISCIPLINE OF CHOICE
— selecting the future with care
We #vote not for slogans,
but for steadiness—
for hands that understand consequence,
voices fluent in repair,
and ambition tempered by arithmetic.
A mark on paper becomes a moral vector,
aimed not at victory,
but at the longest possible good

THE CONVENIENCE OF GENIUS

When invention becomes frictionless,
what happens to the slow violence of thinking?
A meditation on tools, shortcuts,

THE GEOMETRY OF DEFIANCE
— dissent without banners
True #rebellion rarely shouts.
It straightens spines in corridors of power,
rewrites statutes by a single stroke,
halts engines with paperwork,
and teaches monuments to listen.
It works through discipline,
patience,
and the refusal
to kneel.

THE WORK OF TOMORROW
