TITLE: 'ROUND MIDNIGHT

Since years I leave a light on when I sleep, and before falling asleep I select a tv channel, to fill the darkness' silence with friendly voices, to block out of my mind all of my ghosts..

I have been going around with my cars for many nights, driving through sleepy residential areas, efficient industrial sites on hold for the night-pause, country roads leaning to the void of darkness, or playgrounds abandoned and just waiting for the morning life. I have been sitting in my car, in total silence, staring at these places, and feeling the fascination of my fears.
I felt the distance with life, I could barely see life, and watched my ghosts playing around, like in a dogs' park.
