Mac Miller & Earl Sweatshirt - The Star Room
tag
hand
The meeting point of blessing, violence, offering, surrender, witness, and flight. In the logic of the project, the hand may already be the earliest form of a wing.
Meaning
The hand is the body's first instrument and its first costume. Gloved, it becomes a role; bandaged, it becomes evidence; raised, it becomes a wing or a confession. The negative tag −hand (Baptism of Icarus) counts too: absence is also a gesture.
