not much of a weapon

This nearly square composition is unevenly divided into four quadrants with pale-blue in the upper left corner, yellow in the lower left hand corner, red-orange in the lower right-hand corner and Kelly-green in the upper right hand corner. Each block of color has copy in off-white filling the block. In the two upper quadrants, fragments of large letters printed backwards, overlay the text and color behind it.

Not much of a weapon, no not a flute, nor a drumstick; The time of poems is a time of lions!; Not peace but the sword;
