Pandemic Depression

Pandemic depression is searching my soul!
I know what I want, but I just don't know...
How to, go about getting things right.
Feeling, sweet feeling,
Drops from my pages' fingers
Pandemic depression is capturing my soul!

Did you ever read the book?

People have been asking me why I chose the risk of first publishing a book of poetry before publishing my collection of short stories THE VILLAGE OF LIGHT and my first novel, THE PLAGUE. Why launch a writing career on the back of such a neglected and unpopular form of literature?

My first answer has been that as a keen admirer of the actor William Shatner, I wanted to emulate his career; first as a starship captain (in my mind), and second, as a genius of the Art of Spoken Word.

But the non comedic reason is worth explaining here: throughout every major epoch of human achievement and civilization,

Poetry has maintained a major position in the spectrum of human arts; true across society, cultures, oceans and centuries.

Until now.

This dawning century of technological, scientific and artistic achievement; this era we currently reside in, is the exception to the human rule.

We have exchanged our ability to appreciate Poetry for other more comfortable and lascivious sensations. We have unlearned the sensibility to emerse ourselves in the healing waters of an art that we, as a species have grown like a medicinal herb in the human garden, to salve the pains in our souls and our minds .

By turning our backs on those warm healing waters we have damaged ourselves. We are all in dire need of rehabilitation.

And that is exactly what Poetry mystically, delivers; for free. If you know how to see and listen in the subtler spectrums of your mind’s cognition.

"Pretentious? Certainly. If it’s pretentious to dare reach for the stars, when you could so easily settle for a poet’s garret."

Welcome to IS SHE AVALABLE?

This is a goodreads group for a book of poetry: a door that opens into your self and leads out of yourself.

It is illustrated and produced with the help of some amazing talents and dear friends who will touch your heart and your mind with their imagery, music and motion.

Poetry, Art and Music stream emotions and ideas through multiple channels simultaneously : an ebook a finely designed hardcover a Motion Book of animations, a CD featuring original music live spoken word and musical performances,

and this web site for you to connect with us.

This was born, developed and produced on the web. It combines diverse creative talents from far flung time zones, producing paintings, illustrations, music and even sculptural interpretations of the poems in this book. of every significant event and person in my life over the past fifteen years.

It is fed by three themes:

Love & Sex;
Death & Loss;
Politics & Metaphysics.

Inevitably, these streams lead to the same living sea of meaning we all swim in.

Splendid lives like bright, blooming roses are celebrated here; some still with us while others have since slipped past the horizon.

Some of might find the words, the images and even the music disturbing.

If so, good!
Because . . .
When you stare into the Abyss long enough,
the abyss will stare back at you;
and if your gaze remains unflinching,
the Abyss will speak to you
And this is what it says . . .. . .
