This Petite Pen was inspired by the painting “Cubista” by the talented bibliophile David Gista ~30 words or less. If her collection catches your eye, please join me in penning something about her presence. Be sure to ping back to this post so that we can all enjoy your imagings.
Happy Tuesday!
Reshaping the Cannon
Classic literature has crevices

but to view true character
one must lean in.
So she readies her pen
