"For the most part, has been ok. The style and content of the poetry make sense and is owed respect, but I tend to prefer poetry that emphasizes word play and metaphors. The second chapter of the book has been good though" — Jan 02, 2024 06:13PM

“We have learned that trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, brain, and body. This imprint has ongoing consequences for how the human organism manages to survive in the present.”

“Sometimes I think our presence here is due to a cosmic blunder, that we were meant for another planet altogether, with other arrangements, and other laws, and other, grimmer skies. I try to imagine it, our true place, off on the far side of the galaxy, whirling and whirling. And the ones who were meant for here, are they out there, baffled and homesick, like us? No, they would have become extinct long ago. How could they survive, these gentle earthlings, in a world that was made to contain us.”

“One reason that traumatic memories become dominant in PTSD is that it's so difficult to feel truly alive right now. When you can't be fully here, you go to the places where you did feel alive --- even if those places are filled with horror and misery.”

“Nearly all men are afraid, and they don't even know what causes their fear - shadows, perplexities, dangers without names or numbers, fear of a faceless death. But if you can bring yourself to face no shadows but real death, described and recognizable, by bullet or saber, arrow or lance, then you need never be afraid again, at least not in the same way you were before. Then you will be a man set apart from other men, safe where other men may cry in terror. This is the great reward. Maybe this is the only reward. Maybe this is the final purity all ringed with filth. - Cyrus”
