IN THIS BOOK i've set so many fires in the deepest desires on this road and am close to what they hold- the most for human love and equal revolution without the bloody fist and glove of brutal evolution. see, how gold cartel caravans and religions in corrupt polarity have usurped the pagan shrines of all humanity- making us serfs again in unframed Lothlorien, in chains that were strings, ciliced by mortifications mesh, while our mind and limbs long for love's pomegranate flesh. Strider Marcus Jones

The poems in this book reflect on my journey through life, love, the Arab Spring and Occupy Movement. As a socialist and one of the 99%, this book is about love, social revolution and the eternal struggle for equality and justice. In these poems, I look into and out of the wooded windows of the past, present and future and become romantic and erotic, political and spiritual. I am a pagan peasant in this poverty and paradise, chained to the same land in serfdom, but trying to climb the tree of life and reach the branches of freedom.
