What I really enjoyed about Goldman’s poem is how it positions the self among nature, and then thinks about the world from this perspective. What is it to be a self among nature? How is it someone would feel themselves as a self if they saw the world like that? Like a continually multiplying self-awareness that is rooted in nature.
