Today’s sharing from BIOPHILIA is the poetry of Catherine Graham. She has perfectly languaged the theme, blurring the lines between human and landscape. We enjoyed her piece incredibly, and if you like the excerpt, do come along and have a read on our website, wingedmoon.com/biophilia

oh go on we’d love to read your weird poems about life nature and yourself in one big messy compost heap
here at the moons wings we are surprised that we have received very few works writing on the climate emergency or experimental nature writing in our submissions and we’d love that, daring and weird poetry and essays that alter our perspectives. We close on 2 July!!
