'Easy Noumenon' is a short collection of the author's early poems and juvenilia, a debut [e]chapbook intended to turn heads and perhaps pry a few hearts. The author's poetry presents the reader with a slew of visionary images, as well as the themes of loss, disenfranchisement, wonderment and mysticism—numinous realities which often creep into the mundane world. Personal tragedies are contrasted with cosmic principles, and observations on the amusing minutia of life quickly dissolve into the larger mysteries of the self and the universe. A number of poems are symbolic, while others are minimalist and terse. Some are experimental.
The 18 poems contained in 'Easy Noumenon' were written at various times between 2007 and 2014. The following poems are contained in the chapbook: "Chenrezig," "Hymn for Zarathustra," "A—Ω," "Drug," "Night over Lower Manhattan," "Moment and Memory," "Easy Noumenon," "Revelations[?]," "Cousin Richard," "Job and the German mystic…," "Life in the Raw," "The Stock Exchange at the End of the Universe," "goose step," "Thank You Sam (After “Cascando”)," "The French Experiment (or, Finagling Sound," "Easy Noumenon (II)," "With Mr. Jones (Collaborations—’11)," and "Two Corpses (Collaborations—’11)."
NOTICE: This work appears best as an EPUB or PDF file on a standard resolution computer monitor. Other displays (smartphone, tablet, etc.) may cause the e-Book to appear disjointed. I recommend Adobe Digital Editions for best viewing.
