In this age of ecological crisis it is urgently required that we look at the earth as an ecosystem in which we humans are attuned to dwell along with other sentient beings and, further, on the basis of that awareness, change our ways of life. As is often noted, the most salient features of American native poetry are, among other things, its deep concern in the tribal cultural tradition and its reverence for the vital natural world. Indeed, giving due regard to the line, Hogan in her fifth collection of poetry Savings consistently demonstrates her ecological thoughts and visions. The aim of this paper is to read carefully some poems of the collection in terms of Heideggerian “dwelling” and of the possibility of communication between humans and non-human nature and to give a due place to her ecological imagination.
