Abstract
ABSTRACT This is a DIY chapbook of poems crafted between 2018 and 2021. I write found poems and centos drawing from newspaper coverage of fires and flowers in California. If the land exerts agential influence on epistemologies and ontologies, and as climate change affects changes to the land, I ask what new epistemologies and ontologies must necessarily emerge. I see in the California superbloom a utopian performative (Dolan) that potentially points toward reciprocal relationships with the land. Performative poetic inquiry offers a practise of attention that allows me to explore ethical and reciprocal futurities that include fire, flowers, and humans.
