Atman 1975
Movement isn’t progress. He moves back and forth going nowhere. A loop, a ritual, a haunting. Suffering doesn’t just repeat, it layers, and even more if it's something vague, like always trying to be on time but never making it, riding the tram thinking how bad person I am that I'm not even sorry.
