Photographs by Daniela d'Arielli
a treehouse
living above ground, but woven
closely to the tree
above ground gains perspective
one can see a sunrise before those on the ground
and can make a small symphony to announce
the rising of the sun or use mirrors
to re-direct the sunlight down to the ground
where a small fire is started.
it takes this perspective to start fires
fires of ideas
fires to make people jump above the ground…
in the jump they let go
a suspended moment
where we forget
and when we land we are in a new territory of space/time
and openness.
a tree house raising
together we pull it up.
we make our own rope
we make our own pullies
and decide together the form
and how it raises.
a small space
to feel we have escaped
but not to escape, just to see a scape
in the land.
