I will have to tear away at that very last veil

no matter how far I've come

and face the truths that have kept us prisoner

We do not remember

As if a sculpture etched, in our mind's

will not be used for pottery.

As if our swimmer's know, by bone -

heavy, to speed the sinking.

We do not remember

The art of manipulation

The source of the image  you see was made with computer programs but it took 42 hours of touchups to get the source of the image you see to the image you see. Human art is still needed.

Chocolate Cage

You take a balloon, if you have skill form it into a shape. 
Then melt chocolate. Your preference as chocolate comes in many forms. But I think you can even melt simple hershey bars. 
Then put the melted chocolate in a funnel , wait for the chocolate to be in a melting state like syrup or honey, not a liquid state. 
then open the funnel's spout and spread the chocolate in a pattern about the balloon
Then wait for the chocolate to cool. 
then once cool, pop the balloon and a chocolate cage:)
 and you can add things to the chocolate like nuts or other things for different flavors.
