METRO ENTRANCE

A concrete plane tilts up from the horizon
symbol of welcoming
Human figures with all kinds of silhouette
following the path
slope up from the ground

The plane hover above the ground leads to the end
Its turning point breaks the mirror image of itself
becomes rough and jagged
stretches off the horizon and descends underground
Figures flood into a dark hole
Except for those with wheels and burdens
both physical and mental ones
in situ
confusing and fatigue
trapped in between the entrance and the exit

TACTILE PAVING

The texture of the road changed
indifferently
smooth and hard
leads to an unknown land without any hints
Tab to the left is the red steps
Tab to the right, a curved path

After minutes of waltz
she drowns into another dimension
a stage
the void
