Know Hope

Well, the subject of the work is obviously political
It's not party politics, it's the politics of people
Not only their dreams but also the nightmares of people
That are caught in the firing line of war or rape
Or whatever it is that's negative to life

But uhm, I never did these pieces
Without some sort of symbol of hope
So you have to find it in there, I think
Somewhere
Because I think the resilience of humans is absolutely extraordinary
You know, to come through a lot
That I've never experienced and I hope never to experience
But I've met people who've been through the horrors of life
And have come out on the other side still sane
Which is pretty amazing, very inspiring

Some sort of symbol of hope
You have to find it in there
