Transported to another world
Since I am an artist, I am well aware of having my mind float free, which is necessary in pure creativity. I was stunned to find this same effect upon reading his poetry. My paintings are based on the reflections of objects and people. His poem " Reflections" keys in perfectly with my feeling when I paint. It is uncanny. Also, one of his poems states "time was away"--that is exactly what happens when I paint. I step totally away from the real world, into a totally unknown and unfamilar place. I have finally found a poet that speaks to my soul!

It's the poem: " Prayer Before Birth" that I love
It has nothing to do with issues of Choice, except that we want to have it after we are born.
