The Next World explores the grief, anger, horror and illumination found on the border between the world as it is now and the one it is evolving into in the wake of climate change catastrophes. These poems wrestle with the difficulty of acknowledging a myriad of endings: species, places, but also the fundamental seasonal and environmental cycles that humans have always known. Simultaneously they explore what regeneration, hope, and "the future" might mean for us now. These poems allow for confusion, for questions, finding the beauty within the terror and revealing the terror inside the beauty.
