Identifier: CC-30257-31661
Scope and Contents

This is a reprinting of a print from the portfolio, "Evelines, Headlines," done in collaboration with Furnival's first group of students and Ian Hamilton Finlay.

With respect to this poem, it might be a take-off on Basho's famous poem, Frog Pond Plop. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
