there is something unifying about art
and something terrifyingly divisive
yes, we have all felt this- we are not alone in this theatre
millions of eyes have scraped this painting
thousands of hearts have beat to this music
and yet, no one will ever feel exactly the same way as you do
you will walk together, but not the same
supported, but alone
art reminds us of this- of the smallness of our beings
but the vastness of ourselves too, that to an ant I am an enormous mass
to the sky I am the smallest of matters, and to myself?
Why, to myself I am everything.
And one day, to someone else, I might be too.
