A Habit of Landscape

A Habit of Landscape celebrates the convergent meanings of habit and habitat. each sharing the words "to dwell." These poems hold sensate moments-family experiences, inner revelations, transformative places. A realized kinship between the human and natural worlds signals the inclusiveness of place. Not something "out there," this shared space-personal or global- often surprises in the poem's turn. Like flash narratives these poems contain worlds in the vibrating fabric of the instant- forgotten, dismissed, previously unseen. Whether an elegy for a brother, an encounter with a pronghorn, or the whispers surrounding adoption, these lyric pieces speak to the sacrality of the moment.
