Precision and flexibility

By Lexi Jones

A paradox of fractured systems and pointing fingers.

Defiant and outspoken lives resort to silent rebellion, expected to both be exact and adaptive.

Juxtaposed yet intertwined.

The endless stabilization on the societal balance beam, forming a division between those who lack an equilibrium.

Precision and flexibility.

Precision is stability.

A safety net for community.

The function of the modern world in congruency, how we need to survive.

Flexibility is alive.

Where the borders don’t exist, and spontaneity rules a lifetime.

How we need to live.

But plans crumble down in times of emergency,

disasters go unattended when we live with only flexibility.

It’s not all fun and games when the technological framework of this civilization is at stake.

All while the necessity of having a freed mind and an open soul gets lost within all this security and ingrained control.

Art and function should coincide to sustain the inner workings of this contemporary world,

whilst keeping the deserved humanity trait of living like we are alive.
