The poetry of author January Handl creates a vivid and endearing image of life's challenges, epiphanies, and moments of knowing and transcendence at the same time returning us to our deepest humanness: Over and over againwe spin in and outof existence andgrab onto momentsof consciousness.we finally evolve to knowof our deaths, --and so our lives.Aware of our minute particlein the weaving ofwhat is beyond hope for the mind to grasp--the heart leanstoward knowing.
