WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING
The sacred, strip-mined for looks
The surface took the sacred and mined it for aesthetics: ritual repackaged as decor, ceremony filmed as content, holy wood held up to a ring light in a haul video. And underneath all of it, the actual thing, the smoke-sweet threshold, older than the trend and entirely uninterested in the apology when the trend moves on. It was a ceremony before it was a hashtag. It remembers the difference.
Older than the trend. Around long after it.
