(1.) The pursuit we owe to ourselves and the world.
Everyone is a prisoner of something. Current physical circumstances. Past trauma. A limit of belief or imagination. An insecurity. A lie we believe. A truth we ignore. A fear of failure. A voice in our heads that dictates what we can and cannot do. Expectations of family or society. Disability. Chronic Illness. Addiction. Grief. Shame. A general world weariness or exhaustion. A locked idea that the world we've known is the only world there is, or ever could be.
We praise the P.O.W. who escapes an enemy/internment camp. We praise the addict who escapes their addiction and chooses sobriety. But in so many other contexts escape is considered juvenile, a product of weakness or immaturity. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
(2.) To imagine something better for yourself or the world in a fictional setting, until you have the courage or ability to make it real.
No P.O.W. escapes an internment camp without imagining a vision of freedom powerful enough it spits in the face of their current tortured and starved reality. Equally so, an addict who imagines a reality in which they are sober, is often imagining something they think is impossible.
Escape gives us permission to think limitlessly, even when we think everything in our life limits us. Because it doesn't ask what's likely or possible, or what the odds are. It just asks, "What would your reality look like if you had it your Way?"
Nobody who ever dared to dream the impossible, and made it real, started off thinking it could happen.
Escape is the birthplace of the things we dare to dream.

When you and your friend do a poo simultaneously in both the upstairs and downstairs toilet of a household, leaving the residents at the time with no chance of escaping the smell.
After my brother and I had a coffee and cigarette together, we were left with no choice but to pull a no escape on the rest of the family.

For a girl to engage in sexual intercourse while getting every hole filled.
That girl got filled in her mouth, booty hole ad poonans at one time. That's a 'No escape'.

Song off the Pete Rock and CL Smooth 1994 Album, The Main Ingredient. The song features the perfect old school beat with Pete Rock providing the vocals. To appreciate the song to the fullest, smoke a blunt with it.
"The name is Pete Rock, I'll take you higher than the ism. I'm on an exodus, Escapism."
