"All art is at once surface and symbol." -Mark Twain What does art symbolize? It stands for all that we have been, all that we are, and all that we are capable of being. It is the only true source of limitless power that we possess. We can wield it in infinite ways, with infinite consequences. Every brushstroke, every note, every syllable stands for an outstretched arm across the dome of absolute pragmatism that we live in. This collection of poetry charts a seventeen-year-old's journey as she attempts to do the same. A book with raw, staccato bursts of emotion, with each page connecting you to yet another side of yourself.
