The Almighty Goat and Poems

About the Book

This book is fiction but has some basis in reality. It is rooted in the symbolism and manifestation of my “trinity philosophy”: microcosm, macrocosm, and platonic worlds. The second part of the book especially reflects parts of this trinity.

There is no need to describe in detail the reason why my book of poetry was 100% censured. In addition, my book written about the relationship between environmental science and philosophy was more than a third censured and my book on comparative philosophy was somewhere around 20% self-censured.

Poems within the second section of the book are of the “mystic genre”, some of them translated from the poet and philosopher Rumi.
