Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Duet With Omar
On angel wings were heights divine attained, But now we rear cathedrals out of fact My heaven-wooing verse by Truth is trained.
N o priest or wizard, murmuring for hire) Can wrap the spirit in the final fire, But line by line and here and there we glean The straws that blaze and all the soul inspire.
