DEPENDING UPON THE MUSE

​BOOK LAUNCH ZOOM READING

    DEPENDING UPON THE MUSE insights

Depending Upon the Muse marries now to then  and causes the mind to do backflips and spiral inward to wonder where it is ..... here or there. Inside this wonderment, there is a grand disorientation and genius at work taking thought patterns from different realms and polishing each poem to a soft glow that pampers the heart and a harsh eloquence that nips at the soul.

These poems are the pit bull guardians of remembrance and the soldiers of the dog days to come.  ~ Candice James, Poet Laureate Emerita, New Westminster, BC Canada
