Inhaltsangabe

The landscape of the Navajo Nation is in the grip of dramatic transformation. Sand dune migration has led to drought and 191 horses have been found drowned in a stock pond filled with mud.

Opening with a meditation on this loss, Horses is an electric response to crisis: a reclamation of land, imagination and language; a fierce act of protest; and a song for the beauty of nature. It evokes both the end of a world and a sense of emergence amid chaos, a new dawn flickering on the horizon.

Somewhere in a dune field

I am hunched over like a comma

studying the way a landfill

can be mistaken for a sky
