Dancing between the cosmos and daily life, Phil's poetry weaves a magical path through the jungle of the modern world to a place of comfort and safety. His experiences have given him a unique perspective into pain, heartbreak, and loss so that he can best show the way out of these toxic environments. At the same time, he shows the beauty in simple things, pride in a good day's work and joy for the love that shines everywhere. Life is a challenge, and we must be willing to meet it head on and with this book and his healing words, the way becomes clearer. Many of his inspirations come from dreams, meditations or shamanic journeys and offer solutions generally considered esoteric. Each word is measured for its emotional impact and the stories are engaging because they have a ring of truth. The poet employs many styles within the pages of this book from traditional forms like rhymes and sonnets as well as new, experimental free-forms. Any lover of language will enjoy this read.
