#fowc #repetitive
I remember in school
being given a time tables square
we’d sit in class
and for five minutes
go over the tables
over and over again
We’d make things
from Balsa and clay
and off to mum and dad
we’d take them away
but unlike times tables
the creations were made – our way
I was in a store – the other day
and took an interest of plates and jars
all looking the same with patterns, dots and bars
no element of craft – all made by machine
I don’t think my Art teacher – would be so keen
