And yet it was within
I could not shape
The void which makes all vessels useful
God holds that space
We control the edges
And I think where those two meet
Is very special
And there is a deeper koan here and a lighter meaning too, go as deep as you like into the concept of fullness and usefulness and space and the void and vessel. It’s where my brain goes for sure…
Because that’s life, energy, the line we skip back and forth – the duality we join with when we create anything beautiful and of meaning whether it’s poetry or a pot.
Header photo are my creations from my pottery class at Christmas time. The wonky one is my favourite, I was concentrating so hard and then our tutor said “righto ten minutes to go” and it broke my focus and of course my pot bore the consequences.
