  Far Out is Doom: A Sacred Epic

  Reaching higher than the Tower of Babel, shining brighter than the Golden Calf, such is the idol of the future man will raise to worship. A rocketship of immense size and power, the culmination of the best efforts earth has to offer. By compulsion or chicanery, all have been forced to build it. And all will be changed by the Apocalypse its fiery crash from orbit ushers in... 
  In the Wasteland, where ignorant armies continue to fight, a small community is spared, eking out a meagre existence amidst the peril and threat. Always on the edge of disaster, they persevere in hope, with skills honed in the old world. After all, had not terrifying angels, visiting out of the dust, promised all would soon change again in the blink of eye? But, the young cannot wait, and a daughter of the tribe takes matters into her own hands... 
  The journey of man is the journey of earth, for all was made for us, and for us to destroy. And it is not just some men, but all who must choose, what is to be their highest value, the Ultimate. Will it be the rocket, in orbit high above, or what all men can share in equally: the love which uplifts every hand, every heart, and every soul it touches. Man's enemy might tempt us to lies and idols, but in the end we learn he who endures will be saved. 
  Bio

  Natures Silken Robes - Bombyx...

  Natures Silken Robes :: Bombyx mandarina 
  This poem was inspired by a program I saw on silkworms and their germination and metamorphosis into the adult moths (which they generally never get to because of the demand for their silk). 
  Domesticated silk moths don't survive the silk process of obtaining their silk. The death of the silk moth is not described in this Poem. The silk worm trade has been going for over 5,000 years and cultivated mainly in Asia. 
  The name the 'Silk Road' came about because of this highly lucrative trade. 
  The domesticated silk worms are called Bombyx mori, 
  and their Wild cousins are called Bombyx mandarina.

  Into Light Volume One - Poems by...

  INTO LIGHT is the sixth poetry collection from the international, award-winning poet, musician and artist, M. D. Friedman, and is his first full-length poetry book. It reflects the experiences, observations, dreams and epiphanies of a lifetime, speaks quietly about the calling of the heart and loudly about injustices of the world. Eclectic in style and content, M. D. Friedman's poetry connects both the inner and outer realities of a life well-lived.INTO LIGHT Volume One: The Poems of M. D. Friedman, the audio book, contains the first 23 poems from M. D. Friedman's INTO LIGHT poetry book.  For all things INTO LIGHT, e.g., print, e-book, audio book, album, musical and video poetry rendentions, please see liquidlightpress.com/IntoLight.htm. These poems are the masterwork of a different kind of man than most men I’ve known in my 73 years. He is, as we used to say, "his own man." More than a disciple of some orthodox poetry "church," you'll meet a mindful, funny, wise and compassionate person in these texts, unafraid to speak honestly and vulnerably. From Li Po to Robert Johnson, memory care to contemporary politics, grieving lament to defiant slam, MD lays it all out about as clearly as a poet can while leaving enough tantalizing mystery to feed the reader's soul for days on end. He really believes "It is a miracle to be alive."! His poems encourage me to believe it, too!!~ wayne a. gilbert, poet and Colorado Governor's Creative Leadership Award winnerThis long anticipated poetry collection opens like a portal that will rainbow a monochrome world. Reminiscent of Rumi and Hafiz, you will taste the landscape with your tongue, unable to separate your own inner body from the mountains and sky you inhabit, “not the waterfall, but the water falling,” ... “no longer sculpted by gravity.” A love poem to life herself, you will want to take your time, savoring each languid line. “I am taken by how much I need this.”!Valerie A Szarek, award winning poet

  This Far - Poems

  This collection offers a rich harvest taken from one season in the poet's creative life. Like movements in a musical composition, these poems share leitmotifs  ̶  grief and the desire to honor those "saints" who have passed on; the sacramental power of nature; and, how works of art illuminate and console as they do. They point to the tension between the practice of monastic silence and the urge to bear witness, interrogating faith in the light of crises facing the earth and our human community. At the same time, the poet celebrates encounters that offer blessings of hope, inviting us to join her in a pilgrimage that leads us, with her, "this far," and gestures to what lies beyond.

  Requeening - Poems

  “A rare feat for any book of poems, let alone a debut, in that the lines, wrought with such deft precision and care, mark the sum total of a life richly lived and felt at the seat of poetry...These poems care, first and foremost, for what they write of and through, which is a much needed—yet increasingly rare—achievement.” -- Ocean Vuong 
  Engaging the matriarchal structure of the beehive, Amanda Moore explores the various roles a woman plays in the family, the home, and the world at large. Beyond the productivity and excess, the sweetness and sting, Requeening brings together poems of motherhood and daughterhood, an evolving relationship of care and tending, responsibility and joy, dependence and deep love. 
  The poems that anchor this collection don’t shy away from the inevitability of a hive’s collapse and consider the succession of “requeening” a hive as “a new heart ready to be fed and broken and fed again.” The collapse is both physical—there are poems of illness and recovery—and emotional, as the mother-daughter relationship shifts, the daughter becoming separate, whole, and poised to displace. The liminal spaces these poems traverse in human relationships is echoed in a range of poetic and hybrid form, offering freedom and stricture as they contemplate the way we hold one another in love and grief. 
  Requeening is a vivid and surprising collection of poems from a winner of the National Poetry Series Open Competition.
