Heather OC: Week 28 of 208

A section of Jarvis Rockwell's Us installation at Mass MoCA 2023

Rebel Scum

Inspired by Us by Jarvis Rockwell

We, a parade of two, the day

I escorted you to A New Hope, and

The usher gifted you with Luke Skywalker.

We could navigate Tatooine

Just fine - your tiny hand

In mine. You grew to amuse

Yourself for hours;  as I wrote you

Lined up Legolas and Leia; orchestrated

Battles between Orcs and Elves, Sith Lords and

Rebel Scum. Toys lined up on your bedroom

Carpet. Solitary but never lonely.

Still, the worlds you create and construct. How

You will redesign Us now that our

March has expanded to each trilogy and beyond.
