A hopeful future in the senses of the woodshop


The smell of the conifer pine 

The texture of the hard oak

The beautiful grain of the cherry

The dark hue of the walnut


It gives me the motivation I need to live day by day


The compliments of my hard work

The successes of my journey

The core principles of which I live by

The rush of when you see a finish line


So I can flourish into the person I strive to be


The fractal of the burn on the wood

The lichtenburg design which is forming

The cent of the smoke that is floating

The buzz of the coursing electricity


The author's comments:

A fractal burn is when you take two electrodes and put them on top of wood, you then pump thousands of volts through and it makes a burn that looks light a mixture of lightning and a fractal. A fractal is a shape that you can infinitely zoom in on, it also occurs in nature as shown in the photo.
