I wanted to examine memory and perspective, and the ways that certain things linger within us–some might even haunt us–long after they happen. I think there is something especially interesting about how we relate to those things that seem truly momentous, or truly magical.
In these poems, I assume the perspective of a number of fairy tale characters, ranging from the Big Bad Wolf to Bluebeard’s Wife, and try to imagine how they would reflect on a particular moment depicted in an illustration.
