From the entangled cosmos to our present quickening calamity, the central concern of
is the making and unmaking of the world. The poems follow celebration -
What keeps us earth life
handful of sweet notes hidden
thrush
- with lament -
Latecomers
we believe it was all made
for us misunderstand
the nature of give and take.
We live in uncertainty, "between earth and sky ever- / cycling despair and hope." Despite - or because of - this foreboding, Moore seeks to view the natural world in and of itself, beyond its relationship to humans. This work conceives a realm in which distinctions between animate and inanimate diminish and the boundary between physical and spiritual dissolves.
