I experience freedom when
*
Another world from the past
Mingles with my current view of things
*
Free from any prior concerns, the
Record player is usually scrambling through
Envisioning
Emulating and enunciating
*
Words spoken on the radio
Halos around my past devilish life
Every time I want to cross that line
Never mind, I remember it anyhow
Every time I felt freedom, a
Victory
Excitement for new achievements
Rolled up, ringing with new bells
*
In the church, in the field, in the space between
*
Avenged in so many ways
Melted in the way of my lavish life
*
Divans, along the alleys
Rolled on grass and moss
Opposite to
Who I am now
Nature lover – that’s my kind
Inside my little shell, I locked myself in
Never wanting to be hurt again
Galloping through thick trees
*
I freed myself from it
Never wanting to go back again
*
My attainments are now closed on paper only
Every time reminding me that
Memento from a gramophone
Osiecka, Młynarski, Breakout, The Fotoness
Rumbling on “When I Die”
It must be a sign
Even if only on the wall
Surely, has to be something

I was going through the stories I wrote way before Vocal and found a series I’d penned on the American movie industry. I covered the economics of making and distributing movies, the ways the movie industry responds to modern challenges such as MeToo movement and the streaming technologies, and other topics, including some movie reviews.
