Å resirkulere lengselen, avrenning foregår

These poems move out into the world and creation, to fish and birds, gods and refugees, questioning fixed borders and old stories. They echo Ecclesiastes, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Evert Taube, animal fables and myths, and come up to today’s destruction on land and in the sea. They take the planet’s temperature: the war in Syria, refugees, terrorism and endangered species, and nature brought to its knees by waste and money, while siding with those the world does violence to, people or other species.
