Sub Rosa

[https://i0.wp.com/www.theattentionist.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/pexels-giant-asparagus-19493815-1024x768.jpg?resize=768%2C576&ssl=1]https://i0.wp.com/www.theattentionist.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/pexels-giant-asparagus-19493815-scaled.jpg?ssl=1 Sub Rosa, this production’s title, is a term I came across writing/developing this piece. Despite assuming I was somewhat versed (excuse me please, pronounced–ahem–with two syllables) in the English language… I had no familiarity with sub rosa. A lookup online via pop-uppable sources (i.e. https://t.ly/i6U6S [https://t.ly/i6U6S]) explained sub rosa means under the rose in Latin. Yes, yes. But in modern parlance — “confidentially,'” “privately,” or “secretly.” I felt good energy, also dark energy coming from the term. So there we have it — slapped right on. It seemed important to say all that. Now I’m questioning if it was, but anyways… about the story itself: This is about a middle-aged woman recalling a teen experience during an early 90s summer, and also, for her, a time in the shadow of 1982. Main character “Elizabeth,” shares from the current day first-person. Sub Rosa is recalled via memories in the cities of Knoxville and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. The picture above is of the “Sunsphere,” a testament from the 1982 World’s Fair, held in Knoxville.
