(Para)transit park poems

Martina Robinson uses a grant received from the Parks and Recreation Department to write this poetry zine about her visits to various parks in the state of Massachusetts. Martina explores the park from a wheelchair because of her cerebral palsy, and works to climb hills and explore forests without getting stuck. Her aid, Leah, accompanies her as she watches visitors, observes nature, and reflects on the history of the region. Martina writes about immigration and urbanization, as well as the treatment she receives from park visitors.
