Peace and War and Peace offers poetic landscapes of the feeling, experiencing mind (the heart-mind) in vignette sketches (lyrical poems), presenting its vision of life with articulate, powerful specificity: word drawings of consciousness and its transformations through mundane joy & rage, peace & war, agitation & calm, annoyance & good will, to grounded and open-hearted understanding. Encouraging a compassionate appreciation of the difficulties that people experience, both in times of peace and especially in times of war, this collection seeks to illustrate these realities, inviting the promising shift to a more harmonious world.
