b>The poems of i> re turn/i> are besotted not by the who but the inclusive where of what it is to be alive, and never only to do with humans./b>BR>BR>What does the world we live in mean to us? The platform of our daily living? Intricate, intimate, deep-time emergent and never, from the microbes of our guts to the minerals of the moon, only to do with humans. The poems of i> re turn/i> are besotted not by the who but the inclusive where of what it is to be alive. Snout beetle, rain drop, these phone-cradling humans, the humpback whales, all of it, even AI, pours through the poems into the Earth we have. The world is not a stage. Lang grapples with the hope that perhaps there are ways to (re)turn to a being and becoming that is consciously, lovingly, a part of it.
