The Confessions of Saint Absolute

JUST PUBLISHED

The poet’s most personal and revealing work to date, this collection explores the abstract yet deeply experienced impulse toward the holy. Remarkably incisive and free of religious cliché, these brief poems document an ongoing pilgrimage that reveals as much about the pilgrim himself as it does about what he so tenaciously seeks. An exacting but highly rewarding exploration of what it means to pursue an uncompromising vision.

saving the appearances

he worked late into the night
crafting a prosecution
for the failures of god

feverishly he wrestled
with the stark realities
that could not be dismissed

he poured over promises
both explicit and implied
and sought out caveats

as the morning sun arose
he gathered his indictments
and carried them outside

with a magnifying glass
he enlarged upon his claims
then watched them burst in flames
