Description

A luminous collection of poems, this work explores the act of seeing—both the world before us and the hidden landscapes of memory, language, and consciousness. With characteristic precision and musical restraint, the poems move through nature, solitude, mortality, and the fragile boundaries between human experience and the more-than-human world. The result is an attentive, meditative work in which perception becomes a form of discovery, revealing how wonder and loss can inhabit the same moment.
