Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINGS OF THE SAME BIRD is an impressive collection grown from the mythological idea linking birds and the human world with divine realms just beyond ordinary experience. The collection was the Winner of the IP Picks 09 Best Poetry Award. The poems connect birds with the journey of the human soul after death, representing them as primeval, cosmic, legendary, as messengers of the deities, symbols of war, death and misfortune, but also as profound harbingers of strength, love and wisdom. The poetry collection also handles grief from an objective, elevated and (excuse the pun) 'bird's eye' perspective.
