The transformation takes place upon the top of a wild boar. It can withstand repeated strikes as it takes shape and forms its purpose. While resilience is needed to take the repeated strikes of intense pressure. One side pushes from below, as it does a hammering blow from above. Embodiment of a creation that lies within craftsmanship and beauty. What starts out as a mold turns into a piece of intense utility. It’s not about the beginning or the end, it’s about the middle. What took place in the middle to take place and form one’s own destiny. At times the beast may show his face in the presence of a wild boar. Bravery comes out in the spiritual dream. We wallow and flow as we as the roots take hold. Deep seated survival instincts come out in the patterns that define. A connection from above as it gets stamped on with a helmet and shield. Ultimately the force of nature presides and the link to earth’s fertility will abide with perspiration for agricultural abundance. Texas, August 2024
