To make the fish my own,
I made it not a fish.
Process – Recreating Welty
In process, rachel perry welty on August 19, 2011 at 19:35One thing that has been hard for me to figure out was how to recreate Rachel Perry Welty’s wonderful piece for the words Dark and Stormy. It’s basically a mirror. I asked her if I could recreate it, because, well, I couldn’t scan it! The whole point is that it has to reflect! She said, YES. And so I finally found some stuff that would sort of work. Now, I am not an artiste of the visual kind. I am a lady who likes words. I’m just not crafty. I couldn’t really do it in kindergarten and I still kind of struggle with it.
They are a little lumpy. My first attempt I think I used too much glue. My fourth attempt, I think is the best. Only 6 more to go! I think that as lumpy as they are, they get the point across. So I call Success!

The woods weren’t like Grandmother said they be, with clear paths and abundant fruit trees. Though there were roses, little else seemed to grow, and the omnipresent rain had coaxed the brambles across the clearings , weaving stiff branches together like fingers of the dead, immovable. Still, she had to try to cross her cloak in tatters but still pulled tightly over her head.

The fish was fine
But! The wine
Tasted terribly of salt.
She wished she’d checked
Before she wrecked
That ship upon the rocks.
Its men now sunk,
Their booze was bunk:
Her efforts were for naught.
“A siren’s life –
So full of strife”
She sighed, before she quaffed.
