Discover a two-part collection of intimate meditations and visionary poetry that threads memory, mind, and the idea of what we call home.
This volume gathers a sequence of lyric pieces that drift between personal reflection, mythic imagery, and a quiet inquiry into land, identity, and the world within.
This edition presents a careful arrangement that centers a long sequence titled Real Property, along with a second part of more loosely connected pieces. The poems blend inner speech with vivid landscapes—from hushed pools and shadowed underworlds to gardens, gates, and the pull of Eden—all while probing how we hold “property” in life, thought, and memory. The book invites readers who enjoy stark, musical language, shifts in mood, and reflections on existence that mix dream and daily life.
- A sustained sequence that contemplates the mind’s landscape as a kind of real estate, and how we invest in memory, desire, and identity.
- Surprising shifts in tone and setting, from intimate self-talk to expansive mythic scenes.
- Vivid images of gardens, gates, rivers, and rooms that echo with questions about reality and perception.
- A companion set of shorter pieces that extend the mood into nature, domestic life, and the everyday.
Ideal for readers of modern lyric poetry, reflective verse, and works that blend inner life with elemental imagery.
