Essay/Quote: from George Orwell's 1984


 

collage:The Unconventional Queen



 Collage made from objects provided to participants in a poetry writing group.

After we completed our collages, everyone in the group was asked to provide single words for what they saw in one another's finished work.
Once the lists were gathered, a poem was to be composed using all the descriptors provided.
The poem:
The unconventional Queen
Sought colorful, creative adventure
Music, light, sparkle, joy
a ticket to a gem of the inner child
unique, fun, fair and quotidian.
It was a Gem, mystic, circular
Spotted with heart.
Had we but seen
the outcome
There was no surprise
