What is this this thing called art
this thing I feel smell touch hear see
before me
this mode for the senses to draw upon 
this code for the mind to interpret

what is this connection
this very personal yet cultural experience
where is traditional what is contemporary
what is permanent what is temporary 
which aspect is simply material 
which is internally enhanced 
in response to which parts do you remain static 
to which do you dance
testament contribution idea retribution 

dora’s idea is redistribution

so
let’s make anything into something called art
let’s see if I can do my part
I take an image
something plain as a floor
but it’s where I take it from 
that makes it more
I climb stairs I scope and review
until I find just the place that will do
and the floor is no longer just a floor anymore
but a creative rendering of space comes to the fore
this is art

This week Dora challenged we dVerse poets to take something familiar and reimagine it in some way.
