Abstract
The first collection of prose poem, “The Song of Leaves”, breaks the borders of reality and fantasy to demonstrate inseparable relationships of humans and the other species in the planet of the earth. Utilizing literary tropes, collection narrates stories of species, human emotions, needs, and awareness evolved in close connection with the natural world. Social defects, universal devastation, and cultural mistakes are hidden under the skin of poems. The purpose of this collection is to reveal common cultural themes among the East and the West of the world and remind the readers forgotten values of the natural world and people thrown away to the margins. Undermining social political engines which serve economic monsters, the collection follows the criteria of social ecological reformations, dreaming a world as it might have been not as it is.
