Weave

Deadline

You are weaving a beautiful fabric to make into a garment for yourself. Your loom can weave with any substance you wish: the sneeze of an ant, the roar of a river, the fog of London. What would you include in your fabric, and why? What strength or symbolism would these materials hold for you? [Challenge created by Treblemaker, YWP Alumni Advisor; Photo by N. K. on Unsplash]

    Songs 
    of my father’s 
    belly laughter 
    flow through the eye 
    of the needle 
    and around the loom 
    with each abdominal contraction. 


    It reminds me of  
    home.
