[Image description: Found poetry featuring a compilation of photographs of Finnish goalies in net. It is a physical artwork. Poem as follows:
"I'm hearing the Earth simmer and boil and seathe
Tension, a stretched rubber band.
we see the crash better than anyone else."
End poem. Description in full below the cut.
Image one: San Jose Sharks' Jarmo Myllys, bent low in the crease as if bracing for impact. Following the slope of his hunched back and the curl of his arm reads: "I'm hearing the Earth simmer and boil and seathe."
Image two: Minnesota North Stars' Kari Takko stands with his side to the camera. His helmet is patterned with stars whose outlines echo across its surface in stark lines. Down his arm reads: "Tension, a stretched rubber band."
Image three: New Jersey Devils' Hannu Kamppuri is down on a knee, arms thrown out, at the side of a net against a player in front. Through the bars of his cage, his eyes shine. Following the curve of the netting behind him: "we see the crash better than," and then, crashing in with the hockey stick in front of him: "anyone else."
End description.]
