The Seed Is Waiting in the Dark - Meesha Goldberg - Bog

The Seed is Waiting in the Dark confronts the realities of ecological catastrophe with the lyric intensity of a life lived reckoning with questions of collective survival. Intimate poems about family give way to broader meditations on climate change, the Korean War, and growing food. Included within this debut collection are five of Goldberg's paintings, which poignantly illustrate these feral, visionary poems. Full of grief, grace, and lessons from the land, The Seed is Waiting in the Dark conjures ancestral instincts to claim belonging within the cycles of natural life.
