Grasshoppers in the Long Grass

The grasshoppers are  bouncing around in the long grass by the reservoir. How lovely to see them and hear them.
I have been trying to make a couple of new binding structures and had decided to use some earlier lino cuts of grasshoppers. I found a poem by ee cummings which paired up very nicely.

However, the binding structure didn't work very well and so I resorted to a "simple" concertina form.
Juts for a bit of extra practice though I did make an aperture in the cover.









The grasshoppers are playing with letters which spell "B O I N G"... the e e cumming's poem also plays with text. 
Neat poem! :)
