Description:"In this late 21st century landscape swirling with the debris of recent and older histories, in a present constantly marked by the virus of time, we are all travelers, migrants, or refugees. In our search for what lets us know that neither the dead nor the living have abandoned us to our fate, we startle awake or alive at the smallest sign: a soft body waving a tentacle from out of rock, a snail circumnavigating the world reduced to a windowpane. In these thoughtful poems, Jim Pascual Agustin allows us to consider what else there might be besides shadow or sorrow, between those moments when we feel that what we carry is either heavy as sand or lighter than ash."--Luisa A. Igloria, 20th Poet Laureate of the Commonwealth of Virginia (Emerita); author of Maps for Migrants and Ghosts"Jim Pascual Agustin's Waking Up to the Pattern Left by a Snail Overnight is a stunning poetry collection. With his feet in pop culture and his head on a kind of political-ecological-spiritual plane, Agustin writes to the reader in a language that is equally intimate and on fire."--Mark Statman, author of Hechizo and Exile Home"What presence, what exquisite sensitivity. Such perspicacity of mind and heart illuminates Jim Pascual Agustin's crystalline poems. Masterfully observed, shone through with Zen penetration, these songs of innocence and experience divine a universe of complex lives lived, torn asunder, celebrated, and mended. You are enveloped in these entirely believable scenarios filled with people and creatures finding themselves in everyday moments, and extraordinary circumstances. With a few deft strokes, many of the poems here range far and delve inwards. Politics, nationality, identity, family, laws of nature - everything everywhere all at once, yet intimately, pulsatingly at home."--Yeow Kai Chai, author of One to the Dark Tower ComesWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
