Author Description

We are part of the 'woof and whistle' of the universe you and I. Sentient stardust. Yet... how often do we stop and consider all that this truly means? What is our place in the great scheme of things? Where do our sense of wonder, our sense of personhood emerge from? What is time, space, mind and matter? And what about our great human myths and stories? Can we find someway to entwine the story of the stars and the story of our lives? In this great, endless universe we find only one being capable of expressing all the wonder of mere being: ourselves.'Mere being'... Stardust made sentient. Mind. Myth. Matter. We are all these things, inside and out we are on the greatest adventure of all: life. Here I offer a collection of poems on science, myth, and our shared humanity, a way to expand our sense of self out, all the way out, to those distant points of light in the sky. It is a beautiful elsewhere.
