Shealagh Pope “What Lies Ahead” Linocut

“There’s a whale,
right now,
who may have escaped a Nantuckater’s harpoon in 1850
and
a Japanese whaler in 1950;
who once heard the distant songs of fifty thousand of her kind,
then several thousand,
then hundreds;
but who can hear twenty five thousand again,
singing in the warming water.”
