The poem object consists of a large wooden capital letter 'A' with one of its legs shortened and placed over a pile of lower case, cut-out, black paper letters and crosses. The letters 'u' & 'd' can be distinguish among others in this pile. Since the title of this work is "Lewd Woman Letter," the 'A' probably symbolizes adultress, as in "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Ferrando composed a poem with five words in Spanish, e.g. hablar, bostezar, pensar, respirar, and sentir meaning to speak, yawn, think, breathe, and feel in English. He specified puntuation signs including an opened and closed parentheses, dashes, and opened circles adjacent to each of these words as a non-verbal code. In the three subsequent panels only the signs are used to convey the performance of the poem. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

One of the plastic cases contains a videotape of Ferrando's poetic performances. The other contains 1) two booklets entitled, Escrits and Dades, and 2) a collection of cards printed in color that illustrate his poem and book objects, one to a card. Joan Brossa and Julien Blaine contribute tributes to Ferrando in "Escrits" as sound poems. "Dades" consists of a listing of Ferrando's artistic and poetic activities. One of the objects illustrated in the collection of cards, "Lletra Coixa," is held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
