The River of Winged Dreams
THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS both continues the series established with SONGS OF THE ANGELIC GAZE and THE BRIDGE OF SILVER WINGS, and at the same time offers reading audiences something completely new. Four major poem additions to The River of Dreams set it apart from its predecessors: "Sounds Scribbled Mixed-Media Platinum"; "Notes for an Elegy in the Key of Michael (I)"; "Notes for an Elegy in the Key of Michael (II)"; and the title poem. Each of these stands out in its own right and light. "Sounds Scribbled Mixed-Media Platinum" was written during a live sound painting performance, featuring Savannah, Georgia's, Creative Force Artists Collective and jazzman saxophonist Jody Espina, at the Jepson Center for the Arts. The two "Elegies in the Key of Michael" are among the most surprising additions to the book, first because of the unexpected death of the great Michael Jackson in June 2009, and because of the haiku-influenced form assumed by the elegies.
Journey through the Power of the Rainbow: Quotations from a Life Made Out of Poetry
More than a book of popular quotes, this volume is a powerful reference tool for some of the most frequently-cited poems, news articles, fiction, memoir, history, and creative nonfiction on the web. It also provides the largest single selection of quotes by the author, many available only in these pages, including the entire special section titled TAO OF THE RAINBOW. In addition, the book as a whole demonstrates the ability of social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and Google+ to help make positive and inspiring differences in 21st-century life. "Journey through the Power of the Rainbow represents a condensed compendium of literary efforts from a life dedicated to transforming the themes of injustice, grief, and despair that we all encounter during some unavoidable point of our existence into a sustainable life-affirming poetics of passionate creativity, empowered spiritual vision, and inspired commitment." --Aberjhani, from Journey through the Power of the Rainbow

Visions of a Skylark Dresed in Black (HB Gift Edition)
VISIONS OF A SKYLARK DRESSED IN BLACK is composed of 2 works of short fiction and 52 poems. It was first written and published as the global community not only came to grips with the reality of the attacks on 9/11 in 2001 but as a number of catastrophes shook humanity to its collective core throughout the first decade of the new century. People during that time on the one hand found themselves often reeling from the manmade horrors of war and terrorism. On the other, they also had to cope with the seemingly increasing fury of nature in the form of hurricanes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Yet these external challenges frequently intensified individuals' inner resolve and moved them to confront physical world chaos with a persistent kind of grace and startled integrity.
