Jim Lawry’s poems memorialize the losses we all suffer as Earth’s crowding compresses our living spaces to interrupt the subtle biological webs holding our lives together.These two books of poems honor, praise and eulogize the lives of sea slugs and other denizens going extinct as we pay tribute to thousands of species that our children will never see and will never return to our planet.
Born in 1940, raised in San Francisco and educated at Stanford University and UCSF in biology and medicine, Jim Lawry became another ancient mariner loving science and literature, who all his life would stop wedding guests to show them how exciting doing science was so they might teach him about their worlds. Jim loves reading and writing and if he waits long enough and reads and studies and asks enough questions, about the critters he may piece together their little lives with those of human people. Stories help Jim find the essential in the ephemeral. What is real is not what we see but what we see of the ideas in things. Jim's writing includes: Essential Concepts of Clinical Physiology (Sinauer) and The Incredible Shrinking Bee: Insects as Models for Microelectromechanical Devices (Imperial College Press) as well as technical papers, poetry, and plays including Otto's Inferno (Retention of German atomic scientists in Farm Hall England after WWII) and his newest play, Xanadu, a Mathematical Farrago.
