1. Blood Snow
An elemental, image-rich collection of poems set across Arctic landscapes and urban diaspora, it braids Iñupiaq language and myth with testimony to colonial violence, resource extraction, and climate change. Through recurring motifs of ice, whales, and blood-tinted snow, the speaker traces family memory, displacement, and survivance, seeking repair and continuity while honoring land, animals, and community.
