About the Book
There’s a pendulum swing of emotions that may easily be derived from the kaleidoscopic scenarios as they unfold in the spiritual havoc and disquietude of A Poetic Rendition of a Co-Dependent Experience. What had the initial intentions of an innocuous love affair, found "he who pens" past the brink of escape and resolution in a cocaine-directed "Hotel California Experience." Torn between the paradoxical impossibility of self-expulsion, and the unbelievable agony of leaving his love so hopelessly trapped, "his pen moved." The poetic/author finds solace, and an assuaging of personal agony through the only means of therapeutic resource he has at his command. With his pen, passing out of the vicissitudes of infidelity and frustrations associated with co-dependence, faith torn, faith regained, vectors of hope, and a perpetual prayerful posture, through the constant presence of Christ, not only occupied the infinite span of hopelessness which ever so dramatically with disillusions and illusions of escape "back to the passage once known before," not only gives temporary comfort, but creates a disdain as the images that articulate the reality of co-dependence. Though his commitment to his fiancée is a Christ-based one, it may be this fact that makes it the excruciating vissitudal experience that it is!!!!
About the Author
With pen in hand, is the descriptive of this God-fearing writer, who with 18 years "deliverance" form drugs and alcohol, finds himself daily at odds and in conflict with "those" who would suppress the message of his relationship to Christ. Admittedly so, at points that swing on the credibility continuum of "he who strokes the pen," things may seem at least quite incredulous. But ever since high school and early ravages living at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, there has been a strong affinity for the things of Christ. Through other’s points of view, they may have been debatable and ambivalent as the evidence relates to their veracity of sincere commitment. A surrealistic oil painter, who always felt there was something to say, especially in a Biblical context, cared less whether he was supported or stood alone. With his ideas, beliefs, and at times uncanny prophecies, but never claiming to be a prophet, "he who strokes the pen," made an appeal for warrior status in Christ decades ago. As my life alters and expresses Surrealistic vicissitude in its kaleidoscopic ebbs and flows through the venues whose cadence is always orchestrated by Christ, my pilgrimage is seen as just that . . . a promised victory, though at times an also promised bumpy road.
