Maybe there’s something that I think about these days,
lost in a world of my own in Japan-
There is something about the loneliness that hits different from Chicago days.
And I wonder about my mind, and my teenage days...
We used to take ecstacy in the bay area.
At a young age,
and I wonder now if my peers also experience some level of recurring psychosis.
For me, it is not really too bad.
But sometimes, I have this creativity, and an unfiltered openness to the world,
that is only granted by the kindness and community built by ecstacy.
Oh well.

Trapped in a world of recurring consumerism, looping infinitely,
tapping credit cards, and beeping machines at the conbini.
This is not the world for me.
Ask and you shall recieve, instant gratitude, but fleeting dopamine bursts.
How can I transcend?
--
I’ve been transcending by creating an alternate reality in Tokyo,
one where, on weekends, I escape to the world of deep West Tokyo,
The world of green fields, trees, and picturesque rivers.
