In the world our elders came from,
art wasn't separate from life.
It was functional, given shape.
Woven into the rug that kept feet warm.
Carved into pillars with artistic precision.
Somewhere along the way,
Art became distant.
Attention became currency.
Stillness became a luxury.
Life became a puzzle.
The quiet, ancient machinery;
our nervous systems,
crave stillness.
The kind that happens
when your hands are busy and
your mind, for once,
is allowed to wander.
The kind our ancestors practiced
without ever calling it that.
Hands in dough
Needle through cloth
Fingers moving pieces into place
Ways through which our body can heal
what the soul cannot name.
Piecing together what distance, time
and generations have pulled apart.
