Lost Glasses

-

 


Upon the bench I am waiting,

for my departure on another recurring evening;

forever unchanging.

Though they are on me all I can see is foggy

-grey skies and faraway buildings,

faraway dreams and unrealistic cravings.

For a split moment,

as I left for where I'll rest till morning-

I remembered I forgot them,

but between sanity and visual clarity,

which I have chosen can be seen quite clearly.

Context: While on the lrt back to ss15, for the short period of the time the door was open, there I

saw a pair of glasses left sitting on the bench.

A Dark Hallway

InkSpill Competition - Writer of the Month!  [Goodness] In the dark hallway, I see a light. A light so bright, I cannot shy away. I see hope, I see promises. Up the slope, I climb, I am astonished. Astonished by the goodness, Admonished was the ID. In a game of chess, Two winners are forbidden. Who should win in this hallway? The ID or the Superego? Should your conscience be prey? Kill your inner Draco. [Temptation] To be feared or loved? To be supreme or to rust? Even an angel was shoved, It’s now the power that I lust. In this hallway I see passion, Fires of ambition and refashion. Inn for the Machiavellis, Choirs of glory awaiting me. Respect is what I demand, Power is what I crave. I give thee to command, Thy obedience is what I enslave. [Consciousness] In this dark hallway, My brain is beating. Who should come out to play? I don’t want them to compete. To embody Heyoka or Machiavelli? That is my constant battle. Written By: Hannah Ee (StudentInk 🥺🤍)

The Year I Peaked

My Prime Year I was scrolling my Facebook feed when this showed up in my Facebook Memories. This particular picture taken from Mass Comm Society’s official Facebook page from 2018 from their album titled “Hollywood Night: Trip Down The Memory Lane.” If memory serves me correct, this was the second Member’s Gathering by MCS that year, and the one thing that attracted me to this picture was my long hair tied up in a ponytail. My hair was also thick, which is a far cry from my thinning hairline today. Seeing me in this form today instantly triggered something within my brain and made me come to the realisation that 2018 was the year where I was in my prime – something I definitely have taken for granted, or that I have completely forgotten considering what I ended up going through between then and now. I wasn’t a wealthy man, but I had pretty much everything a teenager could have fantasized – long hair, loud car, lots and lots of good times. I prioritised fun above all else. A Rebel W...

Our Origin

Have you ever wondered? About what, you may ask? About the language we speak? Isn't it strange that everyone around the world, ourselves included, simply put our trust into the people who taught us the language that we speak, write and even think in? When we were growing up, we blindly believed the information that others may have told us. And when we questioned them, some valid reasons were provided but most often, we were told that we'd understand when we grew older. But, for some unknown reasons, I still question many things in life, simpler ones such as colors, for instance. Why is blue called blue? And green called green? Why is anything named and called the way it is? Thus, in my opinion, our culture has shaped humankind into what we are now. These information had its origins and were passed down for generations till it reached us today. It's very easy to forget our roots when we're so caught up with achieving and completing our daily tasks. It...
