In foil-stamped printing on a fiery red guitar pick (or plectrum, a device the lyric poet Sappho is credited with inventing) is a quote from Sappho's Fragment 31, the Poem of Jealousy, taken from If Not Winter: Fragments of Sappho (Vintage, 2003) Anne Carson's vivid translation. Each pick is set into a laser-cut mount bearing the tendriled smoke patterns of its production, recalling the burning energy that fueled the poem. Signed and numbered.
