A collage poem titled Stand Up by J.I. Kleinberg. Torn paper scraps are arranged in a zigzag staircase pattern on a sage green textured background. First scrap, upper left: stand up to the light. Second scrap below and right: make. A vertical torn strip connects downward. Third scrap: time to be the shadow. Fourth scrap: grief: fluid and, with fluid and and printed in larger gray type. Fifth scrap, lower left: feasting. Sixth scrap: Take time to be. Seventh scrap at lower left: the silence.
