The Blanket Stories Project is based on the following fable:
Five siblings inherit a blanket. They
lie beneath it, together, to stay warm.
But arms and legs stick out and the
siblings squabble and tug. They do
not realize that they would all fit
if they just moved closer together.
The project initially put a call out to poets, artists, and
musicians to respond to the fable. The results consist of a gallery of poems
and art, as well as a print anthology to be published by Ragged Sky Press. I'm
pleased to have a poem in the project. My poem “Blankets, a Childhood” is exhibited
in the gallery and will later appear in the anthology.
Here is my poem, displayed in the online gallery.
In June there will be a launch for the project:
