A work of quiet genius. The Angel is poetry, a love affair
dialectic that holds perfect peace inside the background of a
haunted postapocalypse city, the decaying infrastructure and gray
stone saved by images of angels, sunlight, forest, rain, and sky.
The series of poems takes the reader on the journey of the Oracle,
a dialogue of the sacred and the profane. Inspired by the muse, the
archangel Gabriel and the angel statue The Eye by David Altmejd,
the book includes a photo installation of the statue by Victor
Tangermann, the photographs riveting, the statue an artistic
marvel. The poet is in dialogue with a fallen angel, possibly an
archangel, who as he travels the apocalypse becomes redeemed
(whether the love affair is redeemed remains in question, possibly
a testament to the tumultuous times). The Machine Age passing into
the New Age of Imagine Peace through the magic of the Internet and
the rediscovery of the tenets of the Holy Spirit, The Angel is the
rediscovery of love itself.
The Book of Blue is a modern-day love story in poetry, written in a
time of great light and great darkness, a story of the heart, the
song of love. The book of poetry was inspired by the Muse and the
"blue dove" painting by Pablo Picasso, as if the refrain was
channeled through Picasso and in collaboration with the poet.
"Blue, you are the dove" weaves through the entire work,
encapsulating each verse as if the poem is a chant, a love song to
Blue, telling his story and the story of the love affair with the
poet. The book of poetry, a prayer of worship and peace, has a
hidden dialectic of violence that, like dark water, winds its way
through the work. As if the state of this postmodern love affair
exists in a place of great longing and war. With influences of
Leonard Cohen, Rod McKuen, Kahlil Gibran. Reminiscent of great love
poetry, The Book of Blue is riveting.
