Express, baggage and all...

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear... Just when you think you've put something behind you for good, you look back and find it trails you like your very own comet's tail, lighting a path through the dark.

Reading through these pages, you'll come across a book within a book, what I call the "Waterfall Poems". Each poem speaks to an image etched in memory, as I recount a very long, terrifying, and important dream. The kind of dream that slays you, then rebuilds you one tiny piece at a time, over a period of many years.

Overall, "Express baggage and all" maps a deep psychological journey, undertaken as a healing transition from one difficult life passage to another. Reading here is not for the faint of heart, but for those who find they're drawn to explore the inner depths of what it means to be a human being on planet Earth, in this particular moment in time.
