The Mystical Quotidian is a collection of over 180 short rhythmicr poems covering a wide range of themes in psychology, philosophy and human relationships. Written by a clinical psychologist in a style reminiscent of Emily Dickinson's, the poems' content ranges from enlightening to disheartening, often with an ironic or humorous twist. Culture's Calling Culture's calling - be on guard; bid your eyes to see; question his mythologies, then clear your mind and breathe; invite your intuition's song; read the sage's words; greet the quest with gentleness - enchanting, though absurd. The Margins of Reality The Margins of Reality were narrowly defined by all of the requirements that you had been assigned - that you had been admired - that you had been implored - that you had then colluded with by how you then ignored - and how you then negated - and how you then took flight - and how your eyes grew misty when the margins came in sight. Confidence He comes and goes - he ebbs and flows - he leaves without a trace, but just then when you've lost all hope you'll find he's back in place. So, you'll proceed and you'll succeed and think you've got it down, but then find when you need him next he's nowhere to be found.
