Poetry From Freedom

About Poetry From Freedom

This is a book of poems based on articles from 'Freedom From Anxiety and Needless Suffering' plus an unpublished selection praising and describing (facets of) The Absolute. I have been asked why write poetry after four books of prose? When discussing this with a poet friend of mine he asserted that poetry has the potential to be more powerful than prose, as it is more condensed and thus requires the reader to investigate its meaning more than prose, which tends to put the meaning 'on a plate'. As my writings are always an exhortation for the readers to investigate the Truth for themselves I was greatly attracted to this and I think that it has some validity. I have found that the discipline of rhyming forces one to look for new ways to say things, so that the poem produced often contains different 'pointers' than the poem on which it was based.
