Judgement Day Haiku, Senryu, & Other Aimless Utterances [Paperback]

Gabriel Rosenstock has been a voyager and navigator on the ocean of consciousness for several decades, mapping its currents, eddies and moods in haiku and senryu poetry that is lean, clear and compelling. Judgement Day is his latest reckoning of who and what we are between the shoals of eternal good and historical evil, vision and blindness. His lantern is a bright one and illuminates vast, evolving worlds of mind, matter and choice, within a cosmology where anything appears and proves to be possible. The dark rubble, tossed forms, and dissociation of Karl Waldmann's collage art, give to each of Rosenstock's poems a setting of tactile grit that singes the imagination.
