for I eat well: tonight there’s consommé, clear
to the bottom. Tomorrow,
curry, tofu and coconut
milk, painted green with lemongrass.
I will bow my head again,
I will wear a wide-mouthed grin,
an uncomplicated Buddha
smiling over his bowl of rice.
At the 2012 Conference on College Composition and Communication, three well-known scholars of composition led a discussion on a writing exercise they'd assigned themselves. Each wrote for an hour a day for a 30-day month on an everyday object, a consciousness-raising activity that revealed much about the the objects examined and the writers themselves. We've taken it upon ourselves to replicate this exercise and record the results here.
