whit whalm momet

fire in the dirt of common calm
this makes me irritational
a combined paste of irrational and irritability
a place i go where nothing but mad winds wail
deafening to a point where, on the other side, comes clarity
and i am welcomed there.

art: a thought on expression

art, is all things. since "art" is an abstract idea, an intellectual construction, it can be applied to anything that "speaks" to someone or makes them "feel." it is the connection made that is the essential element of art. this is what i believe.

so "culture" is "art," art supplies are "art" a single word is "art." a letter even. art does not have to be something that is created by human, it only needs connect with humans. and to say "of humans" is not human-arrogance; i say it this way because, to other beings "art" will mean (if anything) something different. different because every species has a different perspective - but then again, so does each individual being.. human being.
