This image is called Conversing with a Crab! It’s part of my Green Girl images done in collaboration with poet Mary Jo Amani for her book Green Girl Weaving. It goes with the following poem:
On a Deserted Beach
“But what of the eternal waves,” I say,
standing in the shadow of an approaching storm.
“They come in un-patterned intervals, spewing forth
trash—bits of plastic, rusty bottle caps, remnants
of fishing nets, dream syringes half full of mystery, and look,
a rubber Pinocchio doll worn into spongy softness. Nothing lasts.”
Green girl stoops, reaches into the litter.
She opens the pincer of a grasping crab,
rescues a three-legged grasshopper from its clasp.
The card will come with the poem it is based on printed on the back, and will be blank inside waiting for your message.
