marbled portfolio book
my parents brought back
from Paris when
I was 14 or so.
it was the most
beautiful & elegant
object i had ever seen
so I carried it everyday,
to school, under my arm.
there is something
about tying 3 bows that
makes everything inside
feel a bit more precious.
it makes me
proud of my work
which is quite
a triumph as I'm
very self-conscious
about the things
I create.
ps:
when you were
young did you have
a special object that felt
different from the rest?
one that made
you imagine things,
romanticize another time,
another life, or enlivened
the everyday.
