About This Book

A lyrical collection of poems that meditates on religious feeling, philosophical doubt, and the consolations of imagined deities. Verses alternate between vivid evocations of ancient rites and temples, contemplative Eastern scenes, and intimate devotional reflections on suffering, death, and hope. Narrative pieces dramatize acts of compassion and the tension between social barriers and spiritual charity, while shorter lyrics dwell on love, memory, and visionary aspiration. The poems balance reverence and ironic distance, using rich imagery and classical forms to examine illusion, faith, and the human impulse to create meaning.
