Wabi-sabi   Call it an irregularity, call it a flaw, call it the thing’s life and soul — the teacup a little awry, the wall   with one stone a tad askew. Was it planned that way, or a happy accident? Small asymmetries are prettier than bland   perfection — this is beauty that takes hold of the eye, the heart. In the wayward hand of its creator the world’s been made whole.     © Michael Fleming Marlboro, Vermont October 2021
