New Book being published in July

Exciting news. I have my first book being published in late July. It is titled Turning Pages. http://turningpages.books.officelive.com

It is a collection of 80 poems that I have dedicated to my wife, Darlene. It is Japanese inspired and each stanza uses the meter of a haiku, 5-7-5 except the third stanza that is one line of 7 syllables. The thematic elements revolve around a Japanese priest named Ajari-Joan. It is also loaded with a lot of philosophy, theology, science and natural law and at times is almost Flarfist in that it was largely researched by long stumblings through information found in search engines, which I felt was appropriate to Ajari-Joan's legend.
