the made up story of inside and outside the wooden carving

here i tried to add a little hope to the story, in the very last line, well two lines.
i'm not sure where the notion of wooden carvings comes from, but it could be from the carvings you can buy on the side of the road in south africa, or around hartebeespoort dam. it is a very specific specific feeling to see those carvings (over the years too) you also get a lot of carved masks (which are actually a type of replica)
