Waking Life - Poetry by Cynthia Anderson

Poetry by Cynthia Anderson

Photos by Bill Dahl

"In the desert, anything is possible..."

Cynthia Anderson’s poetry dissolves arbitrary distinctions between non-human and human, creature and rock, inner and outer, past and present. Records of the timeless rhythm of being, these poems are a beautiful portrait of the desert she loves. - Catherine Svehla, Ph.D., Mythologist/Founder of Mythic Mojo and Myth in the Mojave
