Offering multiple perspectives from many fields of human inquiry that may move all of us toward a more integrated understanding of who we are as conscious beings.

New Poem: The Past
The Past
As if rising from a winter fog, suddenly
there is a past, my past, composed partly of you,
but then the trees, those ancient oaks, and ravens,
and the arms of night embrace me whole.
In the fragile minutes before sleep, a magnification
of you, your scent, opaque, a denseness as though
your body was lying next to mine, but then
the silence , a murky thickness of loss.
The end was waiting, gathering me together
into its arms, offering solace against the cold.
