Both daring and exacting, Torn from the Sun, journeys through the ensnarements of mortality. The poems’ meditations, rendered in supple language and form, invite us to step along with the likes of Miyamoto Musashi, John Coltrane, Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, and Vincent Van Gogh, as they fly and fall through labyrinthine paths of life. Torn from the Sun weaves mosaic steps that stir the ashes of rebirth, recognizing that these bewildering, narrow corridors are not a prison for death, but rather a space for interior discovery. Traced in this poetry is a way out and it is the way in.
