The bottom line is, it's up to you to interpret art.  Whatever you
see, may be totally different than what the artist drew, or meant to.
That is why we have art interpretation classes, so everyone can learn
to interpret it in the same way.  I never went went to art class, so
if it's a desk you see, then it's a desk; for you.

If you really want to "see" what I meant to draw, try changing the
font a few times; it may help, or not.
