Songs of Flesh, Songs of Spirit Nearly Tantric Poems and Prose About God, Sex, and Anything Else
In this selection of nearly Tantric poetry and short prose, Mark Shepard shares with you his twin obsessions with God and sex -- often in the same piece. Perhaps not since Solomon's Song of Songs have the lofty and the worldly been so entwined, like two lovers struggling toward communion. Humor, insight, reverence, sensuality, a penchant for austerity, and a gift of delight -- you'll find them all in Songs of Flesh, Songs of Spirit.
