She begins with "how to" poems addressing everyday matters such as being hopeful, married, divorced; shearing a sheep; praying to unreliable gods; doing nothing at all; and of course, flying. Next come rafts of poems about making peace (or not) with the complicated bonds of friendship and family, and making peace (or not) with death, in the many ways it finds us. Some poems reflect on the redemptive powers of art and poetry itself; others consider where everything begins. Closing the book are poems that celebrate natural wonders--birdsong and ghost-flowers, ruthless ants, clever shellfish, coral reefs, deadly deserts, and thousand-year-old beech trees--all speaking to the daring project of belonging to an untamed world beyond ourselves. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Conduct of life $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Nature $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Free verse. 650 0 $a Poetry. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 941 $a 4 945 $a cdab 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804023953.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20201201010532.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20201021010329.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20201016011235.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E7F6FCFE0F7411EBB906723149ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
