Forty Psalms of the Dark Web (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349321535)

Spruced up nicely

in the blue light of an early dawn

ginger tea with oatmeal

on the street

with his baseball cap

turned around.

In "FORTY: PSALMS OF THE DARK WEB," M. Montgomery offers readers an intimate exploration of the modern spiritual journey. Drawing from Catholic contemplative tradition and personal experience, these poems navigate the complexities of faith in our digital age.

Like the desert fathers before him, Montgomery wrestles with questions of meaning, purpose, and divine presence. His verses move between the sacred and the everyday-from morning prayers to late-night reflections, from the wilderness of Montana to the quiet lakes of Wisconsin.

This collection speaks to anyone who has felt the tension between belief and doubt, the longing for connection in an increasingly fragmented world. Montgomery's work echoes the spiritual honesty of Thomas Merton and the lyrical intensity of Gerard Manley Hopkins, offering readers a contemporary voice in the ancient tradition of contemplative poetry.

Perfect for readers of spiritual literature, contemporary poetry, and anyone seeking authentic reflection on faith in modern life.
