‘The Universe is Made of’ — Muriel Rukeyser Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Statement Shirt — Oversized Tee

“The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.” Muriel Rukeyser dropped this into her 1968 poem “The Speed of Darkness,” at the height of a life that bailed poetry and protest into the same bucket. Her claim is that meaning travels as narrative: the story is the unit we actually live by.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
