Paul Elmo Keenan has collected some of his most prized verse from the last 25 years and found a philosophical thread going through it. These 50 poems and slams are culled from the philosophy of a Christian problem drinker in recovery who believes that In the beginning are the three words that frame the Big Bang and that God is an atom, that it's important to recall that Eden's forbidden fruit was knowledge rather than sin, and that Thy will be done are the only four words a mind needs to remember. It is a philosophy that was greatly shaped when he walked into a hospital gift shop and saw a plaque on the wall that said the only two ways to live life are to either believe that everything is a miracle or that nothing is. He chose the former and isn't completely convinced that this decision wasn't affected by the time he saw Pink Floyd on MDMA or when he sat beside a babbling brook in Charlotte's Freedom Park listening to the stories that the water and mushrooms had to tell.
