These poems explore how we communicate or fail to communicate with each other, with the natural world, and ultimately with the Divine. Poems of longing, of delight, and of loss reflect on how our relationship with nature mirrors our connection or lack of connection with God.

"'When the Wheel Turns' explores a useful balance between the abstruse and the concrete by moving from gestures of philosophy and revolutionary context to more immediate and 'down to earth' references . . . the puss of war to the peels of beets, the torn planet a sheet of paper, and so forth. This is a very successful and accessible poem." (Fred Wah in his judge's comments on the poem "When the Wheel Turns," the first prize winner in the Kootenay Literary Competition in 2012.)

Print book is 102 pages.
