Trinidentium: Poems of Identity in Triplicate

by Miles Rausch

/'trin•i•'den•ti•'um/

(noun, archaic and pretentious)

Inasmuch as poetry is an exploration of reality,

this collection is a journey

of self-identity

I'm no profound philosopher when I say:

we all exist in a multitude of trinities:

• mind, body, soul

• past, present, future

• first person, second person, third person

Insofar as I've been able,

I've selected poetry that can speak

to the triangles of selves in all of us:

the trinidentiums.
