Retrieve Torn From The Sun Compiled By Gregory Donovan Version

daring and exacting, Torn from the Sun, journeys beyond the ensnarements of mortality into a freedom from fear.
The poems' meditations, rendered in supple language and forms, invite us to step into the footprints of Miyamoto Musashi, John Coltrane, Walter Benjamin, Jorge Luis Borges, Vincent Van Goghand the author himselfas they fly and fall through their own labyrinthine paths.
Torn from the Sun weaves a mosaic steps that stir the ashes of rebirth, a recognition that these bewildering corridors are not simply a prison house, but a ritual space for inner discovery.
Traced in this poetry is a way out and it is the way in,
Some of these I enjoyed while I was reading, but for the life of me I could not remember a single thing about them whenever I'd put the book down.
Pretty language with minimal emotional impact for me I guess, I wouldn't discourage someone else from picking up the collection, but it wasn't for me, This poetry collection draws you in and captivates you in its labyrinths, The inventiveness rivals its intensity, I read it through in one sitting, and then kept it nearby for many revisits, Gorgeous.
