A lively exploration of history, memory, and identity within manmade and natural landscapes, A Poetic Inventory of the Sandia Mountains illuminates the Southwestern wilderness through lyric research. Playing with the concept of a "scientific inventory" of a location's biodiversity, this chapbook catalogues the flora and fauna of Albuquerque, New Mexico, its urban wilds and surrounding mountains, river, and mesa. Against a graffitied, adobe backdrop, the desert ecosystem reveals itself: hummingbirds fly drunkenly after slurping fermented nectar, cottontails slip through the space-time continuum, and chollas guard sleeping beauties.
