Disabling my lights By Dutch Den Bosch Artist Zen Dageraad, Art piece (painting) about: wasting-time love story

Disabling my lights

Continuously, in

All spaces

Out of

Refined routine

And perhaps, some slight

Right intentions

Showing again

That

Habits are

Timeless

At some point in my life, I decided I liked drinking coffee. I don't remember when that happened, and there are many things like it. I also developed a hatred for ads at some point, perhaps because I don't particularly appreciate feeling like the easily manipulated sucker I am. But I know that the right ad still manages to entice me occasionally. For example, I bought these expensive Philips Hue light bulbs. Who knows why? I barely use the features they provide. It's overkill, but controlling my lamps from an app is pleasant. I suppose. Somehow, these expensive lights keep turning off in a way that requires the manual light switch instead of the app to turn them back on. When I was a young boy, probably until I was 20 years old, I was scared of monsters in my parents' house. But when I moved into my apartment, where I thought no monster ever could come and which was way smaller, I stopped being scared. It took me months to figure out what was turning off my lights. To do so, I had decided to sit in the corner of my living room, dressed as a painting, with the lights on, and to wait and see when they would turn off. And then it happened. The door opened, and my girlfriend, who I now realize might be a monster too, came in, used the light switch to turn off my lights, and walked away again. I couldn't believe it. I still can't.
