  1. 1. Wellwater

    A collection of poems that examines how ideas of value—personal, cultural and economic—play out amid housing precarity, environmental crisis and aging. Drawing on the poet’s rural background, the work links corporate control of land and food to climate-driven change while finding moments of wonder and resilience in nonhuman life—trees, animals and recurring natural details—that suggest ways to endure and renew.
