Angels and God
A poem reflecting on the words of apologist Russ Miller and his approach to scoffers and skeptics. When science looks outward into space or inward, such as in particle physics, we rediscover our universe's complexity and infinite nature.
Destined for Anguish and Pain
I love the richness of the English language, especially the use of metaphor in comparing two totally unrelated things to provide you and me, as part of the audience, with a vivid image or expression. This poem employs the Ghazel poetic form, whose roots lie in 7th-century Arabia, later adopted by medieval Persian poets. This particular form borrows from one of my favorite poets, Robert Bly, fashioning five tercets.
