Camille's Return consists of a series of short laconic poems about inner and outer transformational states. To remain conscious and acutely aware of the cosmos and all the transcendent changes taking place, poetry can serve as a mediating borderland of consciousness. Poetry mediates inner realms implicating the shameless mysterious interplay between light and dark. Each poem may be considered a talk story that mesmerizes and leads readers towards the pathway of holistically inspired memoir. Memories of past, present, and future lives are not left out in the cold. Poetry charts the heart's return to grace.
