What do we remember?
Source Material:
- I Remember by Joe Brainard
Prompt:
Write a poem in which every line begins “I remember” and then, write what it is you remember! Try to play around with form and let yourself write long paragraph-length memories and short memories that are just lists of things like objects or people or venues.
