Weighted Ledger

Small buttons spread across the palm, their edges worn smooth by decades of friction and handling. As each piece clicks against the dark wood, a quiet tally emerges between what is held tight and what is cast aside. This slow sorting reveals how life settles into patterns, much like fine grit accumulating in the grooves of a heavy tool. In this rhythmic accounting, the weight of a single object dictates its place in an unfolding history.
