Prophecy Poetry
Previous book; ODE TO MADONNA and Other Poems, 1991(out of print)
From: multi-award winning Poet and Author, Alan Paine
***
Given recent enlightenment and awareness of tremendous spiritual power particularly in this being, you would think words chosen for my latest attempt at poetry would be purposefully ineffectual or given to neutrality and positivity. You would think I would stay away from creating connections that could encumber a once reluctant poet through lifetimes. Most all other poetic writings just reflected emotional or philosophical expressions. There was never a cognizant attempt in writings from this poet to affect change in a cosmic reality of Quantum Theory or what mystics might call magick. Awareness changes all that. My will with regards to poetry appears not always in my control.
While I could not be happier that this Herculean task is complete, it simply marks the beginning of a new journey awash in tears. The next mission has been waiting patiently perhaps thousands of years and it does not get any easier. When you find your mission in life, I can only hope it contains considerably less paradoxical suffering. Enjoy our new world in the making.

Excerpts;
Crumbling Sandcastle Designs; Volume 1
Slaying digital dragons in a Silicon Valley manufactured in isolated cubicles of a spiritually bankrupt mind, my love stumbled around robotically overloaded by binary bits and bytes in an alternating batch of on-rushing algorithms just another statistical victim of a hit and run accident at the anxious intersection of Betrayal Road and Jealousy Street. Witnesses were few but you were there.
Crumbling Sandcastle Designs, Volume 2
Ripples in Time
Mopping sweat between Moonlight Cactus and Horned Toad Lizards on a hot desert day in a one-horse town somewhere north of the Rio Grande, my love went loco Bandito and high-tailed it south wanted dead or alive. Like a Texas Ranger of Love, you brought my love back to stand trial facing honor among thieves.
Nine Inspirations
Entreating to Erato and Thaleia made three
As not to offend veiled vanity.
By a crystal clear pond, gather Goddesses in trio
Then Ancestor Guardians bring blessings from Kleio.
Pegasus commands chariots from Olympus—
Winged white horses to tame a tempest.
Crumbling Sandcastle Designs, Volume 6
The Goddess of Reason
A future where freedom and individual rights ring true finds fertile footprints of fully functioning feminine force as Devoted Daughters dance delightfully in starlight shadows of magnificent monuments dedicated to the Goddess of Reason.

Scarlet Ladies Thirteen
Where Homer conducted Ulysses beyond adventures and fame, my love found Aspasia more valuable than Golden Fleece inspiring philosophers, Socrates, Aristophanes, and Plato 400 years before savages killed a gentle prophet. Wife of Pericles by prestigious presence alone personified freedom and education lifting loving liberated women of Greece higher owing still debt of gratitude never paid and divine bills floating upon spiritual plane grate gradually on guilty conscience like rolling thunder breaking lewd dreams reflected through the looking glass. Tears of a poet burning skeletons beckon perhaps to you for love of Aspasia and payment due.

Thinking about autographing all of the meager 150 copies soon to be at my disposal. Many reasons cause me to print a micro-run for this second book of poetry and companion to the non-fiction, Dawning of the Matriarch Society; How the Extinction Rule was Broken. After the initial run sells out, the book of poetry will be available online as e-book. The non-fiction book can be acquired through Xlibris Press and other major outlets. The book of poetry can only be acquired from the author while they last.
Until further notice, this blog serves as the official ordering page for;

Only one poet in the entire history of the State of Nevada has ever been selected for inclusion in the Marquis Who's Who in America. Add two books of higher consciousness to that resume.
“Individuals are listed because of the positions they have attained or because of noteworthy achievements that have proven to be of lasting value to society. Fame alone is not a criterion, nor is high financial or social status. Only demonstrated accomplishment can earn a place in Who’s Who in America.”
