If it weren't for the poets and artists we would have no maps for our sacred selves. Every poet is a cartographer and translator of the psyche.
Reading a poem is like walking blindfolded within myself, feeling my way by touch - wall by wall - while I figure out the exact dimensions of my depth. Someday I will accept that I am an abyss.
We make do with what we have - our native tongues, our limited grasp of life. I grab for fistfuls of more and more consciousness and all I come away with are a few new wisps of meaning.
Poetry is a back door to our within. This issue is a composite of our human spirit - boundless and mystifying. I am grateful to all the contributors for sharing and showing themselves - a constellation of souls singing and gleaming.
