Scope and Contents

The drawing depicts an abstract musical composition of wavy lines that is framed inside by gray edge and outside by a green edge. The poem reads: "One great wonder in music she knew - she had ears able to hear the palpating mind - she witnessed time echoing - at the end of the past that never came to music;" This poem apparently references Phillips' wife, Fiona Maddox. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
