Evolutionary Mechanics: Selected Poems

In Evolutionary Mechanics, the poet is caught in a quiet panic of stagnation when he turns inward and outward at once, probing the mechanics of becoming and asking the question: How does a person shed the life that doesn't fit and begin to move towards one that might?Through lyrical, comical, meditative, and erotic poems-ranging from brief flashes to sweeping narrative arcs-G. K. Dowler traces a mind wrestling with its own nature while taking solace in the natural world.
What emerges is a portrait of evolution not as a single leap but as a series of small, necessary recalibrations. Honest, restless, and attuned to the uncertainties of contemporary life, this collection speaks to a new generation of readers searching for meaning in a world that rarely pauses to offer it.
