About this listen

This week on The Deep Shore, I yearn to be water. This poem was written in a haven-of-a-home in Deep Bay, Southern Tasmania.

This poem is a love song to the uncontained yet steady power of the natural world, and how the elements we are in relationship with can represent traits that we as humans can long to feel, though at times feel so unattainable to embody in their purity and ancient origin.

How do we belong among these elements? Can we be in conversation with the other-than-human and hear the clarity of these voices in their own essence and simplicity?

Words by Helena Turner.

Music by Cat Bednarski.
