Safety Island
When there is light, there is shadow.
When you see something shadowed by light, you feel that there is a shadow world, and the shadow world follows the real world.
The shadow world follows the real world. A normal thing may be projected in a very distorted way, and this distortion is more real than normal.
Safe Island means a safe island. If it is renamed as Safe Island, it must be very safe, but the real Safe Island is situated in the centre of two intersecting roads.
Does a real safe island exist?
Is there an island in the world where people can feel safe?
The word “chair” has a similar sound to the word “wait”.
An empty chair is waiting for someone to sit on it, and the person sitting on it looks like he or she is waiting for something, or resting.
“Waiting” is a passive word, often we don’t know how long we’ll have to wait, but as long as we have hope there’s always a chance we’ll get there.
安全島
有光,就有影。
看到事物被光照出影子,就會感覺到有影子世界出現,影子世界是跟隨著現實世界來運作。
一個很正常的事物,被投影出的影子很可能非常扭曲,這種扭曲比起正常更真實。
安全島是指一個安全的島,要改名成安全島,一定是很安全,但偏偏真實的安全島就身處於兩條車輛穿插的馬路夾心。
究竟真正的安全島,有存在嗎?
世界上有一個島可以讓這地的人感到安全嗎?
櫈,近音似「等」。
空櫈在等人坐,而坐在櫈上的人,則很像等候著一些的事物,又或者在休息。
「等」像一個被動的詞,很多時都不知要等多久,但只要一日抱有希望總有機會等到。
