Dazzle

The Oregon SAQA group is sponsoring a juried exhibit with the theme Blending Poetry and Cloth. We were to create a fiber work which interprets a poem of our choosing. I am pleased to have been selected for this exhibit. This is my piece which I named Dazzle. It was my interpretation of Emily Dickinson's poem Tell All the Truth but Tell It Slant

 Tell all the truth but tell it slant —
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind —

I like the poem! " The Truth must dazzle gradually Or every man be blind" this is ingenious! In my opinion you have reflected the sense of these words in your work very well.
