Lovers, Liars, Conjurers and Thieves

Quiet, lulling, beguiling, and shocking, the poems in this collection explore the essential world of all things sensual. Reality is dissected in all its complex, tragic, and surreal forms. Playful and gruesome metaphors return again and again to themes of fire, ocean, moon, blood, and love. In sharply visioned images, the ironies of travel, the nonsense of religious exclusion and inclusion, and the politics that govern the world are explored.
