Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?
A baby’s blanket
Acrylic, blue
Held by a little girl
Chaos was all that she knew
It sits in the basement
Folded and clean
Stored away with other memories
Forever felt but not seen

The comfort we got from those soft things was real
