Musk Ox Poems - Jeff Hood - Bog

Reading Jeff Hood's brilliant first collection of poems we get to experience how one man lives his soul path. His I-Thou relationship with everything includes scrambling up rocky ridges, writing poems, flowing through white water, and nurturing his blessed apricot tree. This modern-day Thoreau invites us in to the struggle to make his livelihood support his quest, to make sense of the consumptive culture we've created, and especially to explore his relationship with the mysterious divine feminine. Men who want to live your hero's journey, and women who want to support your man's quest, here is a guide book calling us to be the pine in the wind, to fly through the snow, to know the sacred in your lover's touch, even to find music in the sound of traffic.Jane Lipman, Poet, On the Back Porch of the Moon, Winner of the 2013 New Mexico/Arizona Book Award and a NM Press Women's Awar
