EP // AllegrA – yet, not enough

Post by Misha

I’ve been grappling with the impossibility of “enough”.

Every day is so small. Every word is so short. Every hour that passes is a lesser percentage of the total. And imagination is so big, restless expectation unbridled by the limitations of time and patience.

The stories we tell, especially the true ones, simply cannot compare to it – their natural beauty obscured by a poorly defined sense of perspective.

“These objects are small, and they have no purpose. But I can give them meaning, like I do for myself,” AllegrA sings on Polyester. I think this may be the evasive secret. Or at least part of it.

The mundane, too, can be art if you worship it as such. If you make it so. Maybe it is the only thing that is art, who knows. It is important to remember this, and not to live in the poverty of purism.

yet, not enough is intimate and full of small moments that pass over our heads and through our fingers. It is short and lovely, and, like everything, it is not enough. But that’s ok. It has meaning.
