Multiples
Shedding my compass
in the Valley of Shadows,
I wonder: what is
cast by fragments now falling
directionless, unfound?
Late for Day 1 of NaPoWriMo, and using Sue Vincent’s photo prompt, above.
The art is a monoprint that was cut into strips, rewoven, and embroidered.

Ah, this circular sewn and paper collage thrills me! The art has so much energy. The poem is very fitting for the art. Thanks for posting Kerfe, I hope the move went well.
