Her Words
From 30,000 years ago up to around 2,000 B.C., it was the great Goddess who succored the children of Earth. Today, in the face of rampant species annihilation and a degraded environment due to human overpopulation and greed, Her spirit seems to be bursting forth, recalling the naked two-leggeds to their appropriate place. In this passionate anthology, Muten collects the works of over 72 poets from Homer and Sappho to Bobby McFerrin and Jane Kenyon. Calling on Inanna, Isis, Eve, Demeter, and Kali, these powerful expressions reignite the fire of Goddess truth. As the tired millennium sets in the West and a fresh cosmology rises, a ringing of poetry sounds the resurgence of the Goddess. Hear her vivid presence in the voice of Diane Di Prima: "I am sacred mare grazing in meadow of your spirit & you run in my wind.... I hurl the shafts of dawn like agony down the night."--P.
