I wake to feel my body stretched, violently strewn across the bed, |
by The Prince
I got the recurring theme of symmetry here, I'm not quite sure if it was intentional, but the title and the significance of that particular type of triangle, I've heard the phrase 'life is an isosceles triangle' before, and that kinda entered my mind when I was reading it; also the continuous opposites portrayed here like the dream, and the waking up, the sharp realisation of reality. Also laughing/crying, rationality/and again reality. Sometimes reality cleanses us, or scrubs us off our more outlandish desires, the 'impossible' becoming a word that's etched further into our minds, it's stifling when sometimes there's not even a semblance of good fortune lingering in front of us. I was curious though, at the significance of the 'triangle' later on in this piece when you talked about fate, and how triangles are often seen as a moment when you can take one of two opposite decisions but still end up in the same place. |
