Review of Shaman's Trance  Open in new Window.
Review by Juliet Bell Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Oh, this is quite lovely. Visually, the way you've arranged the lines makes me think of smoke, as in the smoke from a censer used in ritual. There is a cryptic quality to the language that works well. Spiritual insight often comes like that -- just on the perimeter of meaning.

Favorite lines: (Loved your opening)

I'm floating; neither here nor there:
through sedated space,
upon the vastness,
then upon more vastness...
with only the promise of more darkness.

The line I keep coming back to is this one:

Relinquish...awkwardness in tune and tone
to a state of finesse.

Are the .... there to indicate a pause in the "voice" / consciousness?

I liked this very much.

Very cute poem! Wonderful, traditional bouncy rhythm and a nicely put pithy last line.
