Editions: Chasing visions of our futures by Jesperish

I wrote this in 2019,
feeling lost.
Feeling anxious about the world.
I didn’t know why,
only that I needed a way out.

Then the COVID epidemic hit.
Almost like I felt the shift coming.
Things got worse.

And yet, deep down,
I felt protected.
As if something was speaking to me.
Showing me a way.

So I tried to shape it in words.
I drew it in eyes.
A mirror
a guide
a single, silent symbol.

This drawing was the first.
It began everything.
It began NETRA.

A journey inward.
My mirror.
A memory.
Spend 4 years recovering.
And here we are.

And I hope, for all of you
that NETRA finds you too.
