Arc of the Sun (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788119654895)

This highly original collection of 47 lyrical and narrative poems is written around two themes - unknowingness and transcendence. It begins with the short poem "Prelude," which describes a universe where all is in motion and of humans "knowing neither where we journey/ nor why/ but looking to the arc of the sun/ and grateful for its rising." The final poem is "the Dante Tattoo" which concludes with the transcendent -- "this unexpected glimpse/ from Dante's more perfect and far-seeing vista." It includes powerful and moving poems, as well as surprising lyrical pieces about nothing more than the happiness of being alive.
