Paul Kiritsis, author of the award-winning book Hermetica: Myths, Legends, Poems returns with this collection of work that unites to celebrate the wheel of life that is eternal and ever changing and to denote the passage of love. His poems demonstrate sensitivity and a complexity of meaning. In The Anatomy of melancholia he writes: Everything that / The skin of habit / Has come to know- / Has come to love- / Has been poisoned / / By the timely arrow; / And like the earthly serpent, / I must shed that part of me, / And emerge naked / Like a newborn infant, / Ready to be recognized by fate.
Focusing on the directions of east, west, north, and south, the themes revolve around a return to the crack of dawn-the dawn of both life and creation. It is the journey of a lifetime-perhaps many lifetimes.
