My Body is a Forest-Cypress/Right Arm (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In "My Body is a Forest, Cypress/Right Arm", the strength, perseverance, faith, and courage represented in Elm/Left Arm are also born witness to. In truth, as the books were laid out, no preference was made to put either Left or Right, as preferred. They are equally "important" and neither could survive without the other.

It might be said, the two Arms books, are put together in the lap of a meditating man or praying nun, to hold them together so that, as with the Forest analogy, the writer is a Whole thing, consistent, kind, generous, and unboundedly faithful toward the love and compassion he holds for all men, women, and children.

And as with the other books, this one is inclusive of many faces, voices, images, people and experience, ranging over a 30 year period, from young man to seasoned poet.

I hope they "lift you" up to the Sun, Moon, and Tree Tops.

Autorenporträt

I've been writing for a very long time, what seems like my whole life, taking it seriously from the time I was about 11. Now, at 46, I think I may be starting to get the hang of it: Say what you feel, as passionately as you can, but always with an ear turned to those who are listening.
Most of my more serious work is done at live performances, which i do totally extemporaneously, channeling the mood of the room as my fingers play on the guitar. You can see some of that if you go to "my" website. (Open Mics Austin is a platform I created to showcase the Spoken Word scene here in Austin, TX. Only a small role in which i play.)
As far as I can tell what makes good writing is LOVE. Love ,plainly simply, and with no strings attached.
I put these words/books before you, not so much because I want something back from it, because I think and feel like I feel my bones and my soul, if you were to see the world, experience it like it do, for even a brief moment, you would walk away from that happier, more alive, compassionate and in tune with all those around you.
Peace, good will, and harmony. Let those be your guiding light.
Agape forever,
Scott Vanya
