ENLIGHTENED CONTINUUM, the third and final book in the Lake Parking Trilogy, is a collection of lanturne poems that when written on the page look to be in the shape of lanterns in using their 1-2-3-4-1 syllables per line structure. A trio of lanturnes are used to illuminate each of the 249 topics. The book is about youth and their search for understanding, their inquisitive nature, their desire to conquer, and sometimes being trampled upon. It draws upon the dark and light of life, taking notice of ideas both small and large. It is a way of working toward balance. These poems are food for thought, combining the yesterday and today as indicators of tomorrow's trajectory. They are slices of time that allow us to contemplate. It is specifically about people who inspire me and issues that excite or trouble me. I draw material from the day's headlines and pop culture. Some themes are uncomplicated, and others are heavy in nature. The poems are candid in language and play out against the backdrop of history. It is about capturing the subject in a straightforward manner, bringing a clear focus to the work. The goal is to get back in touch with our greater humanity.
