The collection of poetry found within Forgotten Race Saving Grace were written and bound together by me with the idea of dream sharing and the ability of the human condition to approach adversity thru the art of transformation. How often do we find answers within the constructs of our sub-conscious? And how often do the dreams of our fellow humans ring enchantingly familiar? Life is full of mystery. We often wonder how we arrived where we currently reside, in mind, spirit and body. I truly do not believe that we reside in reality, that there is a truer reality, which is where our spirit resides. My hope is for conversation and sharing. One person asked about BEFORE. BEFORE is based on reincarnation and sharing my journey with a soul mate; we have more than one. I began astral projection at the unusual age of eleven. I've been a tarot reader since 1981; it was by a freakish occurrence which I believe indirectly involved Allison DuBois (Someday, I hope to have that conversation with her directly). One of the poems, XII HANGED MAN, is based on the thirteenth Major Arcana card of the traditional tarot. This is the favored card of the Gypsy, it is a guide to withstanding persecution. I am considering a collection of poetry representing all of the Major Arcana. My favorite card is the beginning 0 The Fool, it's all about faith.
