BUT THE RIVER was dead, from ANTWERP to the sea

Small painted envelope I mailed to Stefano Fossiant Sini in Italy,
around fragment of poetry by EMILE VERHAEREN from his collection TOUTE LA FLANDRE.
Verhaeren is a French Belgian poet but he caught the essence of Flanders like no other Flemish writer has done.
