LOOSE STRINGS WITHIN

Confusion and doubt lie within
Hindered by the past
Clinging to disguised illusions
I am broken within, as I loathe the road ahead
I am descending into a lake of muddy water
Will I drown in its shallow waters
Oh, where is there mercy to be found
Calling upon the grace of god, as I tremble down
Promised; the meek will inherit the earth
Have I been given a false promise
Or am I too blind to see the truth
I have no more wishes to grasp for
I am done with the eternal voyage
I shall reside into nothingness
But yet nature besets me with her quiet whisper
Forget yesterday and live upon the miracle of now
I must be silent to listen to her

I am found to be still
Aware of my breath, the body which cradles the soul
I am struck by the benevolence of Natures offerings
As grapes dangle down from the vine, offering their sweetness
Glancing at the blades of the grass meadows, gleaming as they wattle in the wind
The sweet fragrance of the frangipani flowers with their ornate rich colour
How have I forgotten the miracle and wonder of ‘being’
Life has been kind, it is I who has been the fool
Instead I chose to follow a rational pursuit, instead of the seed I inherited, and forgot to reap
For too long I have neglected to trust and rest in the bosom of life longing for itself
A new tide has come upon me, I am born again

All art by Meled Taouk

The rhythmic display of fast brushstrokes in warm purples and pinks dash all over in a frenzy of burning light, displaying the ambience of a burning fireplace in an intimate space.Strong, thick and bold gestural brush strokes rage against the paper in black, white and red. The soft drip of teal green household paint demonstrates an urban imprint of industrialism. Thickly layered and textured with clay, the flesh of the painting is rugged and blunt.
