From the Edge of Chaos and Form

From the Edge of Chaos and Form takes a glimpse into the lives, imaginings, and interactions of humans, animals, and nature. The poems offer snapshots of beauty alongside more forbidding realities of our human existence on the planet, both past and present. The poems glimpse literal and metaphorical edges of change in a galaxy of spectacular structure as well as chance and random happenings beyond any human involvement. But as humans disturb and destroy--in pattern-like behavior--different forms of life, human and natural realms consequently alter. Beauty and ruin, order and chaos, control and surrender, humanity and cruelty, preservation and annihilation coexist and hold on to one another in a kind of opposition and attraction that has each side becoming like the "other" once a threshold has been crossed in what's known in part as chaos theory.
