Nature Poem by Tommy Pico

challenging emotional reflective medium-paced

5.0

5 stars. A millennial/Gen Z anti-pastoral poem for the ages. Pico's narrator, also Indigenous, rails against the idea of indigeneity hinging on a spiritual relationship with nature. Pico's poetic structures defy stylistic convention and conjure an environment realized, handed down by generations of bureaucratic abuse, and grit.
