Produktbeschreibung
A dreamlike collection of poetry that intertwines an embodied experience of the natural world with mythology, memory, and the creative process Woven together from fragments collected in notebooks and dream journals over two decades of introspection, Dog and Moon inhabits a space of sleeplessness, enveloped in the darkness of night. Kelly Shepherd draws inspiration from the free-verse ghazal but takes the form and bends it to create a sort of Indra's Net, with couplets echoing and reflecting across his poems. They are a series of juxtapositions: nature writing placed in conversation with the language of poetry workshops, mythology and childhood memories, and sensorial encounters with the natural world colliding with images of home and belonging. My ribs, the mattress's ribs--I can't sleep. This is a war, > A war with Mother Nature. > Try to talk to someone when they're snoring: > Happiness is only a purchase away, > Time moves differently depending on your bedsprings. > so much of writing is trying to remember > An inexplicable need to follow the pathways of unseeable sparks and insects in the blankets.
