I wonder if art and craft should be left alone to speak for itself.
We expend so much energy and so many words
justifying and explaining and critiquing
that we forget to pause -
and listen -
to what a work of art has to say;
and we forget to pause -
and reflect -
on how a work of art has transformed us.
Let's put away our jargon and our cliches and our buzzwords and -
listen.
