“Station”
Collaborators’ Q&A: Artist Elizabeth Terhune: I find I carry this poem with me as one would a stone in the pocket. I am deeply grateful to Maria Hummel for articulating the world and space of this poem. Poet Maria Hummel: …That’s the thing about a terrific image: it can create a reality and transcend it at the same time.
