Wow, so glad I read this review. I held off reading this book, bc I thought it would just be... more of what I already know. It's not.

I Stand Up
Unfurl [as fungi]
Loft into the sky [as forests]
Bring life back to air
Bring life back to earth

I am the sand
ancient memories of life
I am the wind that swirls the desert dust into the living sky
Swarms
Scatters across my body
Atmospheric rivers bloom red
plumes of mineral dust
An offering from the distant past

I am the diatoms, that once drifted in an ancient sea
now a desert, in the Holocene depths of the Sahara:
the cratered sand floor of a paleo lake
a reservoir of dust, between paleo shores

I am the reefs that sing summoning wanderers
I am the larva of coral and fish drifting in the open ocean.
I follow the music of a thriving reef
calling me to my new home

I am the 🌊 that caress yr skin
As my body warms I thrash+tear deeper
deeper into the seabed
deeper into myself
deeper into my past
My fury casts into the sky
ancient memories frm the deep
biosedmnts
Calcified remnants of ancient life

I am the waves spuming with life
I am the spirit in your breath
I am the air-sea boundary
The frisky interface
Dynamic, Volcanic, Galvanic
I breathe
You breathe
We breathe

From oceans above, to oceans below
My lungs
My heart
[How do I care for you?]
I am the moon that gently pulls on your skin
I am the flowering tides
My currents pulse like arteries
My veins bloom blue-green

I am the trees lofting microbes to the sky
I seed my breath with life
Cast a spell
[Pseudomona syringae]
to summon atmospheric rivers back from the living air;
I call back the rain
From oceans above
to oceans below

I am the forest
rivers streaming water from the soil into the sky
Here in the sky water has a secret name:
A microbe
so perfectly shaped, it nucleates ice directly from vapor

Soil Stands Up
I am the soil that stands up,
unfurls, [as fungi]
lofts into the sky [as forests]
I am the forest feeding on the sun.
I breathe
You breathe
We breathe
How do I care for you?
