“What’s in My Pocket?” by Elvisa Crinkler

What’s in my pocket?
The first thing that is in my pocket is money. There are 2 nickels and 2 quarters in my pocket. They are both flat, round, and silver.
The second thing that is in my pocket is fuzz. It is really small and soft. Also, it is gray.
The third thing that is in my pocket is a pencil top eraser. It is purple. Also, it is 2 cm tall and 1 cm wide.
The last thing that is in my pocket is a small piece of paper. It says Dritz on it and it is yellow. Also, it is 3 1/2 cm long and 1 cm wide.
Those are the things that are in my pocket.

[The previous work was found in a drawer of our house in a gray envelope made of construction paper that was cut in the shape of a pocket from a pair of jeans. Though there is no date written on this work, we estimate that it was completed sometime around 2007 or 2008. Read straight, the work is a wonderful piece of process art with observations focusing on the physical attributes of the objects being described, but with no emotional or aesthetic judgements being rendered by the observer. Fun piece. —RFY]
