Book excerpt: This collection of poetry is about time and consciousness. In one way, time is merely a human construct that does not exist except as we have imagined it, so that we can function in our daily lives. In another way, time is omnipresent, a super-reality, existing and permeating everything. It weaves in-between the vastness of space and in-between the vast spaces of our minds and it makes us a whole: the universe and each of us as individuals. Time encompasses everything, all of the past, present and future. Time, then, is truly timeless. This other kind of time, for me, has become synonymous with consciousness, the consciousness of this universe, which holds in it all that has been, is and will be. It is the great author, the teller of all stories and all histories simultaneously.These poems are a composite of a small amount of consciousness: mine. It is me falling through my time here on earth. I hope they will resonate with you and your own exquisitely unique and universal consciousness. I have organized these poems into three sections, as different clusters of poems seemed to better represent different aspects of time. They are: Relative Time, Story Time and Cosmic Time. Relative Time is primarily autobiographical; my life as I remember it; as accurate as we are able to be. The poems in Story Time are either pure fiction or intentionally embellished autobiography. Cosmic Time holds my philosophical and spiritual beliefs. I have included some traditional forms of poetry, along with predominately contemporary free verse. You will find within these pages, free verse, rhyme, narrative poetry, sonnets and haiku.
