We Each, at Medium

This will begin how it will end
with Art.

Because what is Art,
If not a medium.

Possibly it's a subject, or an ethic
Or even a language within itself.

However, it is such that we, as Artist, as creators
are the medium.

How do we know Art
That is not seen,

Seen, but not heard,
Heard, but not felt

Felt, but misunderstood.
Though within misunderstanding

is understanding.
Not that you and I

Believe in the same things
but that you(X) and I(Y) simply believe.

We are each denominators in an equation
That is unique to ourselves.

An equation that creates reflection
and aestheticism,

Guides us away from measurement
And contrast.

This equation is a return to balance
That reminds us

That balance does not just mean equality
It also means connection.

We each create and therefore are each
are Artist and Art,

One in the same.
