A Visionary Poem by the Celebrated Aboriginal Australian Writer Ali Cobby Eckermann

/>

/>Ali Cobby Eckermann's sparse, visionary poem follows the contours of an Australian landscape and dreamscape, accompanied by magpie and owl, sun and moon, as well as a daughter named Blessing. With a reciprocity between inner and outer realities, She Is the Earth tells a story of becoming, "a ritual made of self."
