Saturday notes















The Sew Somerset Winter 2016 issue is out – with an
article by me, about creating handmade notebooks...


And here's a piece of – somewhat textile related –
"random poetry" I wrote the other day:


A smart dress.
A bump and crash survived.
Time past from time.

Pages being turned.
Patches being ripped
from time, patch by patch:

Exhibits of my mind,
nicely patterned
with softly
ageing skin.

Great clouds
everywhere.



I call these "random poetry" because I make them
by randomly cutting small vertical strips from different
books, then take (most of) the words I find and rearrange
them into a poem/micro-story of my own.

More examples are on my Tumblr site...

Danke, Manu. Die ornamentale Vielgestaltigkeit kann aber auch wunderbar sein...;)
