there is a different green.

$5 from this (& from all my jewelry) will go to the ACLU • they’ve got a lot to get done

materials • a friend made the lampworked glass beads & gave them to me

• the copper wire was gifted to me by my brother-in-law, who salvages it from the generators he repairs for a living

size • the entire piece is just about 2 1/4″ tall

• the copper u is a little under 1 1/2″ wide

Though here at journey’s end I lie
in darkness buried deep,
beyond all towers strong and high,
beyond all mountains steep,
above all shadows rides the Sun
and Stars for ever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
nor bid the Stars farewell.
