An artist carefully folds a piece of paper in half
As he thinks about his design
Each line needs to connect.
He cuts the negative space
And as each line, each cut is lifted out
The design becomes clear to the artist.
The last incision is made
And his grand design is unfold
The people see
The shadow of the past reflects the shadow of the future.
