For poet Steven Nightingale, the sonnet is not just a poetic form, it is the form of our dreams: the dream that poetry can take the mind home to original beauties; that the life of each of us is bound to a joy at the midmost of the world; that language can tease a bright reality from the catastrophes of the day; that we may learn to change ourselves, in hopes of becoming hidden sidekicks of light, useful, practical, bemused. To bring home these dreams, Nightingale s poems travel the world in body and soul. So The Cinnamon Theologies Cinnamon for the sensual world, the amorous overture, our delight in earth and spice and song, the promise of love and the unity with the beloved. And Theologies for the everyday presence of the divine, all the transcendental elements in our hours, in word or event; and the call to us of another and better world.
