  The Weather Says

  Poems

  Catherine Owen

  Riffing off of a range of lines written by (mostly) poets, these poems explore weather in all its variations and roles – as a topic of small talk and a source of catastrophe, both benevolent and terrifying – and examines our intimate and fraught relationship with it.
