We are dreaming of tomrrow, and tomrrow isn’t coming; We are dreaming of a glory that we don’t really want. We are dreaming of a new day when the new day’s here already. We are running from the battle when it’s one that must be faught. And still we sleep We are listening for the calling but never really heeding, Hoping for the future when the future’s only plans. Dreaminy of the wisdom that we are dodging daily, Praying for a savior when salvation’s in our hands. And still we sleep And still we sleep And still we pray And still we fear And still we sleep.

Todd Anderson (Dead Poet Society)

Artist Samantha Keely Smith paints breathtaking abstract landscapes that resemble the swirling waters of the ocean. Using oil paint, enamel, and shellac, Smith builds up multiple translucent layers of color, alternating between soft brushstrokes and large, sweeping gestures to evoke crashing waves, surging tides, and stormy floods.
