When I was a little kid I remember once telling my Grandmother “I’m bored.” She asked me to look for and find the smallest object in the house and bring it to her. After some time I found a safety-pin about 1/2 inch long and about 1/4 inch wide. She said “I’ll bet you can…

Practicing “narrative” additions to my “visual story” thing – and this time I illustrated a short short-poem-story-like-substance.
