Description
Homing asks how we can make a home in a multifaceted world. The poems explore how we may take care of ourselves and the communities to which we belong, including non-human ones, when we and they are put under pressure. What is necessary for creativity, for joy? The book suggests that by attending to the visions offered by the sensual and natural worlds and the voices in which memories sing and sting, we might succeed in asking what we want. From there, arrive at a garden that despite knowing brutality, welcomes life in its varieties and offers up bounties for all, where as sunlight dims, worker bees keep themselves and the colony alive.
