hidden haiku - a memento

This is a "memento" thing. I got this idea and instead of just making a note (which I'd forget anyway) I sort of "scratched it down" by doing it roughly. 

Media: India ink on paper, string, super glue (to make the knots unbreakable), cotton cloth, "icon board" (gessoed wood), acrylic, colored inks, industrial "silk" paper.
the haiku reads:

sepulchre
a name that saves
on its way to morning


and should be attached to the back of the work in an envelope ... or something
