Description: Note from the author: "These poems map the latest developments, the last four and a half months to be exact, in the war with our fear of unworthiness.  The war has been going for years, changing at times to the conscious eye between hot and cold.  Soon we intend to provoke lava flow; the publication of this collection of poems will be that provocation."

"It has been a long war not out of cruelty or profit but because it is one without the option of surrender for either combatant.  There must be reconciliation, healing, release; or else mutual destruction.  Thus we fight, to end the horrible things that will happen if we do not;  we fight to know each other, to heal each other, to release each other to love.  May this glimpse into my war inspire yours."
