Abstract
Drawn from the author's 60-year journey through the Middle East, Japan, and North America, this collection of poems offers a variety of engaging styles, ranging from sonnets to haiku to free-form experimentation, while considering the implications of technology, science, and nature in the context of the 21st century. Including previously published works as well as unpublished new works, each piece is delightfully engaging, possessing a wry sense of humor while celebrating the pleasures and paradox of modern life.
