Day two and I am already behind by a little bit....ugh. Sometimes, the inspiration comes quickly, and sometimes, it doesn't. Such is life, I suppose. It does make being timely a little difficult, though, and I find myself up late attempting to write something good and worthwhile. Today's inspiration comes from my workshop. Lately, I have been having a lot of fun on my lathe, with some really promising results. It's really quite cathartic. And that brings me to today's verse.
art and artist
Nothing more than spinning wood,
against a sharpened bit of metal,
chipping away the grain,
to reveal something that was always there, unseen.
an expression of vision - the artist's mind -
viewing something new in a simple block of wood,
changing the old into the new,
remaking,
and being born again in the process,
the artist finding something new inside himself,
hidden below the skin, unseen,
finally revealed at last.
Thanks for reading, as always!
