@RizomaSchool @LMSacasas Love your rap. Maybe worth affirming: a cumulative 'side-effect' of such 'work' (whatever approach we take) is that the gaze itself begins to change and, changing, changes all. Then, *everyone* appears, clear as day, as they truly, deeply, transcendently are. Beauty, personified!

Art of antlered deer with nimbus and calligraphy:

I feel it now.
There's a power in me.
My looking ripens things.
Nothing is too small
For me to cherish
And paint in gold
As if it were an icon
That could bless us
Though I'll not know
Who among us
Will feel this blessing.
- Rilke
