Description

This book is dedicated to all Sensitives. These are among the millions who have had experiences of an otherworldly nature, some of which are understandable and many incomprehensible. Sensitives in all cultures have the privilege of gaining glimpses into the world of causes, where the energies and powers behind phenomena become perceptible, experienced. They delve beneath rather than float upon the surfaces of things. When making efforts to communicate their experiences, many are not understood, marginalized, and rejected as weird, unstable, mentally unhealthy. Societal inclusiveness of that which is different and anomalous is rarely evident. The poetry in 'Shaping the Wind' seeks to bring glimpses from that other world and provide a poetic structure for the beauty that resides there, and a beauty that manifests directly through that world's interactions with the Everyday. External nature and the interior life of the human being interweave in myriad ways. Art always seeks to reveal, embellish, and highlight the intimate interstices and correspondences existing in all relationships.
