She sews in a sweatshop still dreaming of Gold Mountains / reliving her past through holiday rituals / patiently waiting for her house in the suburbs. / Helplessly I watch the years roll by / on the horizon no houses in sight, just mountains made of brass and sweat [screen print poster]

Hom, Nancy, poet; Stephanie Lowe, artist

Artwork by Lowe to accompany a poem by Hom that was originally published in 1977. Signed in pencil "Stephanie Lowe 1980." Limited edition of one hundred, with number penciled at lower left. A lovely, fine example, from the holdings of Hom herself.
