Description
Moms and grandads crisscross the dusty roads of desire and dismay in these poems set in strangely familiar territory. Hummingbirds, squirrels, feral cats, coyotes and the creatures that are trees reveal their otherworldliness to shape the scope of human knowledge. The setting looks like any '50s American suburb, but beyond the tract houses and cracked sidewalks, its residents hope for brotherly love. They long for the restoration of a liveable culture. Poet Jan Seagrave explores the emotional, social and physical topography of her neighborhood faced with the challenges of global warming, pandemic and social change, while finding a path through personal loss. She discovers an area worn by time, but one whose people, flora and fauna are still lit with beauty and promise. #poetry #environment #loss #neighborhood #love #humanity #climate change #social change
