Product Description An intense and powerful collection of fantasy and metaphysical verses. Poet Laura Qa uses words as super sensual symbols that penetrate ideas, moods and emotions in the depth of the unconscious mind. Review... her book... is aimed at you. It's about you.

Our political and social masks are stripped away in the world of our dreams, the Underworld, where the truth becomes an unavoidable image.
