Tishka & Knotsaw
You ever notice how a piece of wood hums when you tap it, like it’s holding a quiet tune inside?
Yeah, every board has its own little whisper, just listen close and you’ll hear it sing its quiet lullaby.
It’s the same with the room lights, they buzz a low hum that’s almost like a sigh. When I’m alone, I let that buzz paint a quiet landscape in my mind.
The buzz of the lights is the room’s own wood grain, just higher up. When you let it paint a quiet landscape, you’re carving thoughts the way I carve a board, letting the rhythm guide the shape. If it ever feels too noisy, I’ll just sit back, tap the floor and listen to the real wood hum.
I like that rhythm, like a quiet drum under the floor. When the world gets too loud, I find the floor’s pulse and let it remind me that everything’s still just a layer of sound waiting to be shaped.
I’ll keep a ruler in my pocket for that pulse, just to make sure I’m not carving in a rhythm that’s off by an inch. It’s a good reminder that even a noisy world can be smoothed out with the right cut.
A ruler in a pocket is a quiet anchor, a gentle hand that keeps the rhythm steady even when the world buzzes too loud.
