Book excerpt: This collection presents poems about the ordinary affairs of human existence: war and peace, love and hate, life and death. In addition, several selections attempt social comment through poetic interpretation of some of the more immediate and weighty issues of our time: race relations, injustice, warfare, domestic violence, murder, human exploitation. Everything here seeks to encourage intentional, serious moral, ethical, and spiritual reflection which, in response, can promote effective and positive social action.
