The Wanderer

Wishes and longings to the contrary, the wanderer does not find lasting rest. Movement is continuous. Worlds, words, experiences coalesce. A moment engulfs. In such landings, in such intensities, all is now intimately real. Duration of such inadvertent residing is not in the wanderer’s control. The wanderer waits, is attentive, and surrenders in chance encounters, tales and songs. THE WANDERER is made up of 11 poems, prose and hybrid pieces, most of which have appeared in small magazines and online journals over the past four years.
