These are poems written between 1957 and 2010. Many of the shorter
ones were published in various magazines; most of the longer and, I
think, more important ones appear here for the first time. My poems
are not intended to entertain, though I hope they will be enjoyed.
They are intended to be epistemological explorations. Like theology
and mathematics, poetry is a system for manipulating abstract
symbols in order to generate maps of possible realities. Poetry is
also a music for the solo voice. Hence the musical aspects of
poetry--rhyme, meter, scansion, stanza farms--are essential
disciplines, just as music theory and notation are for a musician.
They are also fun to play with. I write about many things: love,
sex, faith, cosmology, consciousness, religion . . . and whatever
else I happen to find interesting.
