Description:
The Soul Unsettled, a wide range of human emotions are expressed in three major areas: life, politics and love. I chose life because we have become accustomed to only wanting to see its good side. However, life presents powerful gestalts of success, failure, yearning and accomplishment. Life is teeming with the diversity of joy and heartache. I try to capture in these verses a measure of the complexity of life. Yet, there is no understanding life without considering politics.
