Pyramid Song

REVOLVED TRIANGLE
Location: Yoga House, Medan D'sara
Photographer
: Anna-Rina


'I jumped in the river and what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me.
A moon full of stars and astral cars,
All the things I used to see,
All my lovers were there with me,
All my past and futures.
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat,
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt.'

(RADIOHEAD Amnesiac)

Under The Bridge

BRIDGE

'Sometimes I feel,
like I don't have a partner.
Sometimes I feel,
like my only friend,
is the city I live in,
the city of angels.
Lonely as I am,
together we cry..'

Spineless

SPINAL TWIST
Location: La Bodega Lounge, Telawi
( Photo: Special thanks to Yasmin )

'I'll be low maintenance and agreeable,
I will not talk about my dreams so much,
I'll listen to you for hours, won't need anything.

I'll be subservient and spineless,
I'll lick your boots as empty shells,
I'll be opinion less and silent,
I'll be the prettiest appendage to ever lose herself.'

No More Keeping My Feet On The Ground

TRIPOD HEADSTAND
Location: Kuta Beach (BALI)
Photographer: Ace


'Sometimes I feel the chance is surprising,
Surprisingly good to be moving around,
So I wake up, yes I wake up smiling.

So what? I feel fine, I'm OK,
I've seen the lighter side of life,
I'm alright, I feel good,

So I'll go and I'll try to start moving.'
(COLDPLAY Safety EP)

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing

CHAIR
Location: Yoga House, Medan D'sara

'Well if I was in your position,
I'd put down all my ammunition,
I'd wondered why'd it taken me so long,
But Lord knows that I'm not you,
And if I was I wouldn't be so cruel,
Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do..'

Fake Plastic Trees

TREE
For: RAPI, December '05 [Karangkraf]
Photographer: Anna-Rina
( Outfit: Stella McCartney for Adidas, thanks to Adidas [M] )

'She looks like the real thing,
She tastes like the real thing,
My fake plastic love.
But I can't help the feeling,
I could blow through the ceiling,
If I just turn and run.
And it wears me out, it wears me out,
It wears me out, it wears me out.

And if I could be who you wanted,
If I could be who you wanted,
All the time..'

(RADIOHEAD The Bends)

Where Fishes Go

FISH
Location: Harris Resort, Kuta (BALI)
Photographer
: Ace


'Yeah I found God,
and he was absolutely just like me
He opened my mouth, looked down my throat
told me I was thirsty
He said, I been, I been, I been
been in this water all my life
never took the time to breathe, breathe, breathe.

Whatcha doin' in this darkness baby?
When you know that love will set you free
Will you stay in the sea forever?
Drowning there for eternity?'

A Moment of Happiness

CRESCENT MOON
Location: Kuta Beach (BALI)
Photographer: Ace


'A moment of happiness,
you and I sitting on the verandah,
apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.
We feel the flowing water of life here,
you and I, with the garden's beauty
and the birds singing.
The stars will be watching us,
and we will show them
what it is to be a thin crescent moon.'

The Nearness Of You

LOTUS
Location: Harris Resort, Kuta (BALI)
( Photo: Special thanks to MK )

'It's not the pale moon that excites me,
that thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you.
It isn't your sweet conversation,
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you.

When you're in my arms,
I feel you so close to me,
All my wildest dreams come true.
I need no soft light to enchant me,
If you'll only grant me the right,
To hold you ever so tight,
And to feel in the night,
the nearness of you..'

Stand Inside Your Love

EXTENDED ARMS RAISE in MOUNTAIN POSE
Location: Tanah Lot (BALI)
Photographer: Ace


'Don't understand,
don't feel me now,

I will breathe,
for the both of us,

Travel the world,

traverse the skies,
Your home is here,

within my heart,

And for the first time,

I feel as though I am reborn.'

Redundant

WHEEL
Location: Harris Resort, Kuta (BALI)
Photographer: Ace


'We're living in repetition,
Content in the same old shtick again,
Now the routine's turning to contention,
Like a production line's going over and over
and over roller coaster.

Now I cannot speak,
I lost my voice,
I'm speechless and redundant
'cos I love you's not enough..'

This is Love

FLYING CROW POSE
Location: Kuta Beach (BALI)
Photographer: Ace

'This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First, to let go of live.
In the end, to take a step without feet;
to regard this world as invisible,
and to disregard what appears to be the self.'
(Love Poems of RUMI)

And you belong with me..'
