The Beautiful Contradictions

23 August 2013

Description

The Beautiful Contradictions is an awe-inspiring vortex of mythology, history, and anthropology

The Beautiful Contradictions is an awe-inspiring vortex of mythology, history, and anthropology that pushes the lyric to its upper limit. A vast ecopoem for a dying Earth,a socially radical poem, a matrilineal drama, a Judeo-Mayan-Buddhist initiation, a transatlantic epic ending as a transamerican arrival, a testament uniting science and imagination.
