Fukushima Fortune Cookies

As the Fukushima-fication of the planet continues, and more and more of us seek refuge in manic distraction, these poetic interventions reactivate timeless presence and inspire us to glow in the dark. The book’s three sections mirror our spiritual progression. First, we learn to groan intelligently by acknowledging the timeless root of our so-called unique and modern problems. Next, we take refuge from ego’s orphaned, identity-grasping habits by stepping into the story-devouring mouth of each howling moment. From there, we win ourselves back by awakening as the Unborn - a timeless presence that attends to the apparent catastrophes of life with compassion and resourcefulness. No matter what stage you find yourself in today, these poems will accompany you like a wise and wily friend, meeting you in the dark with a flashlight - and a cookie.
