“It's
possible, in a poem or short story, to write about commonplace things and
objects using commonplace but precise language, and to endow those things—a
chair, a window curtain, a fork, a stone, a woman's earring—with immense, even
startling power.” ― Raymond Carver

ReplyDeletewell it would be excellent self-promotion if one could get a spot. but most importantly it'd be way cool fun if I could come up with something unique enough. i've tossed the ball out onto the playground of my imaginarium . . . we'll see if anything creative rises to the top.
