ohhhhhh looks what I made
ahhhhhh so proud
put in envelopes
hand write friend addresses
lick stamps
drive to post office ( happy)
put them in box - myself ( feel the weight )
see them fall
hear them hit the bottom
to journeys across the country

real
old-way
hands on
connection
materials
good work
fun
people
artist
