Gravity: poems and images II - Paperback

by Chuck Alen (Author)

GRAVITY is a collection of philosophical poems and companion abstract artwork which explores varied interpretations of gravity....from the moth and flame to the nature of our being.

From physics to emotion, each section represents a different way we can understand this expression of attraction. Be it the magical force that keeps our feet on the ground or the constant draw between us as individuals, we see the impacts of gravity every day. This simple word represents that which pulls on every level of our existence. It is a descriptor of what ultimately drives us towards both the dark and the light. It can be used to relate how we are compelled together by ephemeral community in this experiment of human existence or pulled apart by individual fears that drive wedges in between. From the galaxies, planets, and stars to the subatomic realm, gravity references interactions operating at both the intangibly grand and the impossibly small scale.
