Numinous Mirrors is a short book of poetry reflecting ideas that cross the boundaries between nature and science; between comprehensible evidence and incomprehensible magic. When the traditional religious impressions of my youth were gradually replaced by the distinctive facts provided by university studies of history and science, I discovered that spirituality still resides within the realms of curiosity and discovery. I live today in an almost constant state of awe, wonder, and amazement -- as I skeptically ask questions and claim answers that lead to more questions. To live in a state of awe is spirituality. Rhetoric is what emerges in squabbles with experts Poetry is what emerges in quarrels with ones self These poems are an attempt to offer to myself partial illumination, contentment and surprise to a few of my ever-surfacing questions. Then inevitably, curiosity arrives once again to announce additional provisional questions followed by empirical evidence leading to still more contemplative resolutions. Like inhaling and exhaling the cycle of science continues to provide new life.
