Product Overview
Drawn from material written over a 12 year span, these 128 form and free verse poems dance together through a variety of topics, themes, and styles. Each one is an immersive, visual experience crafted with precision and subtlety.
Subjects range broadly, from following the birth of a star as metaphor for the birth of a human consciousness to a five day dance with solitude in one of Northern Californias pristine wildernesses to reflections more personal and concrete, such as the effects of a suicide on loved ones.
At one end of the spectrum, find sonnets and free verse examining elements of the human condition such as loss, grief, addiction and abuse. At the other end find villanelles and metered poems exploring metaphors for modern culture, spiritual understanding and the cultivation of hope.
