This volume collects 48 poems written and published between 2016 and 2020, grouped thematically by the taxonomic roots of our world. Within these pages you will find meditations on nature, mortality, and love; also references to a wide range of literary and historical figures, as well as nods to the more modern: social media and memes.
The overarching sensibility is one of attention: attention to detail, attention to feeling, attention to the vast beauties of existence and its contradictions. From poem to poem you will encounter talking animals, and mystic trees; search-engines and movie-stars; humor, pathos, and mystery.
Poems in this collection have won literary prizes, been nominated for a Pushcart Prize, and appeared on Entropy and Queen Mob's Tea House, in Saranac Review, Alabama Literary Review, The Evansville Review, and elsewhere.
Also includes an author's preface and extensive notes.
