The Second Arrow

This book of poetry is about transitions and duality. The book sails along the usually dim boundary between the conscious and unconscious. It harbors along the way at surrealism Zen Buddhism transgender/LGBT issues animal rights/ethology naturalism racism dialectics and dualism. The author is an analytically trained psycho- dynamic and practicing psychologist. While as a practitioner she discretely challenges the tradition of therapist as blank slate as a poet she openly celebrates the beauty of full disclosure the inspiration of mystery and the delectability of the undefinable One. Suffering is inevitable but also electable as the second arrow strikes.
