Scope and Contents

According to Ars Libri: "The rarest volume of the Ocean Stripe Series, a lyrically beautiful concrete poem revealing a rainbow of die-cut colored papers, announced by the word "arc" after repeated leaves of "ark." The inspiration is the story of Noah. Loosely inserted, the passage from Genesis 9:13: "I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token for a covenant between me and the earth...." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
