An Ambitious Silence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736877654)

The trick has always been to be quiet enough to hear the things that need to be heard. Or at least willing to put one's ear to the ground (or sky or heart) of silence in order to pick up something new/ancient, beyond the all-too-human. It turns out silence is not empty, but rich with raucous conversations. The poems harvested in An Ambitious Silence include a biodiversity of voices: of the more-than-human, alter-egos, inner voices, ancestors, Muse, Mystic, and Mystery. Conversations with archetypes such as The Artisan, The Priestess, Butterfly, the Emperor of Dust, and Tumbleweed T m, reveal astonishing perspectives on cosmic unfolding, grief, belonging, presence, and post-imperial imaginings.

Whether maniacal or mysterious, delusional or delicious, An Ambitious Silence offer a symphony of vibrant voices and a multitude of un-author-ized conversations worth leaning into.
