Abstract

This essay explores the eco-poetics space of “home”. The anti-Cartesian paraphrase “I breathe, therefore I am” exposes the biochemical, material and energetic aspect of being. By creating an image of the community of all organisms, the poet freely moves from the cosmic towards an intercellular space.

Keywords:

ecopoetics, tissue, communication, compost, ecology, Julia Fiedorczuk
