DeCreation

In 2019, my friend, scientist, poet, and collaborator, the great Steve Peck, began an exploration of the unraveling of evolution, or in other words climate change.  We call it DeCreation. What started as 24 small pieces paired with poems made from scientific journals, has now morphed and continues to take shape as we dive deeper into ideas about destruction, sadness, and loss. This work has been published in several journals including Cold Mountain Review and Whitefish Review. The entire collection has been bought by the BYU Library to be used by students and faculty in the humanities, arts and sciences.
