| Summary |
"Mortal and Divine Trajectories is a first collection of free verse poetry that is part memoir, part existential journey. Working as a kind of extended meditation on the relationships between circumstance and desire, the poems' topics vary. Some call out the commonplace, others the profound, but each is a sketch of the human condition plotted across a larger trajectory of consequence. Classic dichotomies of give and take, self-determination and limitation, manifest and latent spiritualities and even the poet's pull between observation and intervention are explored. Together they work like a grand wayfinding system tracking the course between the directions we are given in life, what we divine for ourselves, and what is revealed in the end."--Abstract. |
