New West/ Wild Fire

Daniel’s first collection of poems range from the satirical to the surreal. A ’language collage’ incorporating social commentary, while avoiding the controversy that invariably goes along with it. Asking how we got here and what to do once we are, not only by addressing our Being in the world, but of Being-at-Large. Which is itself a kind of Being, aware of the cycles, and cycles within cycles, that often don’t have time to repeat before we are compelled to evaluate them in the minutes, hours and years that are available to us.

It is this finite sense of time that limits our awareness to what we can absorb in every moment, while the poem, like Being itself has its own cycles and its own sense of time, which confirms for us, that in every act and in every work of art there is something it is like to be.
