“We spend our lives afraid of change. But after many years, I realized the beauty of life is the change.” - Leif Plantar

“Change can be difficult. But it’s how we grow. It can be the hardest thing to realize you can’t hold onto something forever. Sometimes, you have to let it go. But of the things you let go, you’d be surprised what makes its way back to you.” - Anne Boonchuy

"The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it. Move with it. And join in the dance" - Alan Watts

“Yūgen is an important concept in traditional Japanese aesthetics. The exact translation of the word depends on the context. Yūgen is not an allusion to another world. It is about this world, this experience…

“To watch the sun sink behind a flower clad hill. To wander on in a huge forest without thought of return. To stand upon the shore and gaze after a boat that disappears behind distant islands. To contemplate the flight of wild geese seen and lost among the clouds…” –Zeami Motokiyo

In a Red Bar  // Allen Ginsberg

I look like someone else I don’t like in the mirror — a floating city heel, middleclass con artist, I need a haircut and look seedy — in late twenties, shadows under my mouth, too informally dressed, heavy eyebrowed, sadistic, too mental and lonely.

— ca. 1954

Into the Subway Train Pt 1

Yugen looked through the dark and lonely subway trains. It was so eerie and silent as if you could hear a pin dropped. They looked both sides and continued walking. Their college buddies were talking about the so-called ‘ghosts’ from the Nimbas city Subway train. 

To lighten the mood for themselves, Yugen jokingly say, “Hey my name is Yugen. You’re probably wondering how I got in this position.”

Yugen recalled their friends saying that the dead twins roam the halls since it was rumored that when a subway tunnel collapsed under them both. To which the rumors were then circulated that the ghost of one of the twins haunt the subway trains. To which you guessed it, a lot of ghost hunters and explorers of the unnatural trying to catch them on tape were always breaking and entering the subway trains to film them. Yugen kept telling their friends that they would never ever! Go into the trains at night. 

Was it because they would get in trouble? Well… it wouldn’t be the first time that Yugen was caught in trouble with the staff but no not really. It was mostly because Yugen does believe in ghosts but it was due to the upbringing they were brought up. How ghosts should be respected but how you should never mess with them. Yugen shivered when their grandmother’s solution was to get rid of spirits with home remedies that brought really bad memories. In hindsight, Yugen always respected the spirited and wouldn’t want to give them a reason to get violent with them. But when their friends from college gave up on persuading Yugen, they turned to their cousin, Soleil. Who, mind you, had a weak constitution and was told by their grandmother that she could see ghosts but the image they would show up is when they died. So Soleil who might see a subway twin covered in blood paired with that ability is a sure fine way for her to be easily possessed by an unwanted ghost. Yugen can’t imagine how many ceremonies that Soleil’s family had performed throughout the years due to Soleil’s condition. So when their friends in college tried to make Soleil do it, Yugen took up the offer. And that’s how Yugen got here.

“Hey there demons… It’s ya boi.” When they were met with silence, they took a huge deep inhale and exhale, not before coughing.

“Dust!! Dust in ma mouth!!” As they coughed a dark shadow took notice of them. They were already walking towards the young fellow, their attempt at helping them by patting their back was a bit fruitless. Since their hand phased through. Which was to be suspected. Since Ingo, the ghost of the train twins was well… a ghost.
