dc.description.abstract | Shelter is a collection of poems dealing with questions of inheritance, permeability, and access to the divine. This thesis uses different poetic forms to explore each poem's inherent and inevitable architecture, so as to get closer to the idea of poem as physical object, as sculpture. Shelter relies heavily on archetypal imagery, much inspired by Federico Garcia Lorca's lecture on the lullaby, in order to defamiliarize the reader through familiar means. | en |
dc.description.abstractgeneral | Shelter is a collection of poems that contends with the question of God. In this collection, the speaker tries many times over to build a house. In the end, however, the poems point to some sort of surrender to the elements. | en |
