Forgetfulness is a blessing and a choice

AsideJuly 2, 2024July 3, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper2 Comments

From around age ten we begin taking out contracts Invisible signatures In indeliblee ink That say I know you And you know me But I don’t remember signing Away the right to forget Everything, and begin again *header picture of a tribe of boys playing on the beach. I was entranced by their rough and […]

Song of a Sculptor

AsideJune 17, 2024June 17, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper19 Comments

Hands that hammer Wood and stone A heart that persists To drive nails home No matter what the weather Gods decide forge wrinkles into his hide and blisters. The process is difficult Fraught with doubt that can crumble at any minute But somehow the craftsman Draws it out Not realising That the stone The wood […]

The sun sleeps in

AsideJune 6, 2024January 20, 2025 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper11 Comments

I wake to a grey morning And run Because if consistency is the greater part of art It is also the greater part of health Mental And physical The bird on the power pole sings It knows it is dawn That the sun is merely hiding behind clouds And there is reason to sing For […]

Macro Insights

AsideJune 3, 2024January 20, 2025 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper13 Comments

I peer into the void Twist the focus ring gently Snap A flower A leaf A lesson appears Insights descending into consciousness So clear you wonder why you didn’t see it before Obvious now Ignorant before The ring turns back foreground blurs A series of moments Viewed through a lens Who wields the camera? It […]

We are what we are. Creator vs Producer

AsideMay 21, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper12 Comments

Productivity Creativity Curly hair Straight What we have, we take for granted What we don’t We Wish We could do better at being *I wish I could spend money on sensible things, but blinds for my home are boring when compared with vintage cameras. I wish I could spend my time more wisely, sensibly, productively. […]

Breath of winter arrives

AsideMay 20, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper10 Comments

The warm air is breathed into the belly of the earth Sucked in In anticipation of dawn I feel the shift in temperature as I walk The moisture turns to frost A bird sings a poignant anthem And the sun rises Gently warming my shoulder My smiling cheek The camera buttons sleek beneath my frozen […]

Art is for art itself

AsideMay 17, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper27 Comments

It’s so easy to chuck in a self directed challenge. I’m up to date 6 of my photography challenge on Instagram and I struggled a little this morning. I thought I should be running instead of walking. I didn’t know what to take a photo of and I felt the need to get it over […]

The Way

AsideFebruary 16, 2024February 15, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper10 Comments

The freedom to think naturally Move easily To let emotions come and go Without being trapped in their snare nor beguiled by thoughts and cravings. To let others simply be and it all occur. Held by the structure that Is self designed installed and embraced daily. I don’t even have to think about it anymore […]

Immutable

AsideFebruary 10, 2024February 10, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper10 Comments

A piece of glass, fragile and transparent. People bump into it, not realising it is there. They think to walk through it, smudge it with their fingerprints, or handle it clumsily, shattering. Using it as a filter for their own perception, or a mirror for their own reflection. Glass is endlessly mutable and open to […]

When you feel important

AsideJune 7, 2023February 17, 2024 Kate@athousandbitsofpaper5 Comments

Look for yourself in yesterdays footprints The wind has erased your passing Look for yourself in the thoughts that you had a year ago You are not there you barely remember what you had for breakfast last Tuesday We wake, we think thoughts and we journey over the day The hills, the valleys Emotional highs […]
