origami

score art cards

with the blunt edge of a knife

cut just deep enough to fold

but not tear

fold the edges in

push corners out precisely

into fine slits

tear away along perforations

snip, snap, snip.


you allow people to do just that. isn't it?

they mark you and stab you

score points and lines...


and you scream sometimes

but let them cut you

hoping that at some point

you would be art.
