"Single Shadow."

What do you see when you look at this?
A shape, a form, a shadow, or your thought?
What is it about this piece that defines it?
The color, roughness, or just what you were taught?

Is it the shape?
The shape that creates the shadow that you see?
The shape that defines the way you see it?
The shape that makes it visible to you and me?

Is it the shadow?
The shadow that makes it more prominent?
The shadow that differentiates it from the rest?
The shadow that makes it very dominant?

Is it the color?
The color blue that is darker than the rest?
The color blue that exists only near the top?
The color blue that you may consider to be the best?

Is it the roughness?
The roughness that shows that the piece had actually felt?
The roughness that shows that the piece has been weathered?
The roughness that shows that the piece has some life left?

Is it the lifelessness?
The absence of life to show that life is not the only beautiful thing?
That life is not the only one with a shadow?
That lifelessness can also create a lot of zing?

Is it the distance?
The distance from reality and your social networking?
The distance from the other pieces and other colors?
The distance from your life and your philosophical meaning?

Is it the contrast?
The contrast in the shadow that creates the simplicity?
The contrast from the background that defines its form?
The contrast in everything that creates its main complexity?

Is it the difference?
The difference that creates the main value?
The difference that creates the real meaning?
The difference that gives living objects a real clue?

Is it your comparison to it?
The way it is more relaxed than you with its shadow?
The way it is more complex than you with its motto?
The way it is more lifeless than you with its own show?

What do you see when you look at this?
Life, lifelessness, a shadow, or what is and is not true?
What is it about this piece that defines it?
Is it the way it can define itself, in contrast to you?

“IT is Bes.”

"It is Bes."

IT is coming for you,
you better run and hide.
For hiding gives you time,
before IT starts your demise.

IT is coming for you,
for Halloween is the night.
You better start thinking,
for the plan is full of fright.

IT is coming for you,
you better not shout out.
For any sound may start,
the real reality and doubt.

IT is coming for you,
you never knew all along.
That the story had started,
and that life may not be for long.

IT is coming for you,
calling anyone will bring the end.
No time to tweet or ask on Facebook,
if anyone is willing to help you as a friend.

IT is coming for you,
turn off and dim the main light.
For the light will turn on and off by itself,
to start the process of the real fight.

IT is coming for you,
no time to warn anyone else.
Either you save your own self,
or start smelling like a rotten body smell.

IT is coming for you,
you wonder why you will die.
No place to hide in a building,
and no place to hide out under the sky.

IT is coming for you,
time to spread the fear is getting less.
Save yourself and hope for a train,
IT is Bes.
