This poetry collection is an exploration of grief, life, love and fear. Sometimes, the fear of violence goes hand in hand with what weI know about moving through life and informs the way we know to grieve. What it teaches most is that grief is wholly individual, there isn't a simple guidebook to follow to make it through. There is no end to the grieving process, losing someone you love leaves a space in your life that cannot be filled. There is no right time to "get over it" or "move on". Ultimately, you live day by day and hope that you give yourself enough space to get through the hard days. This collection is compiled of hard days, of easy days and the days in between. This work reflects the messiness of grief, and ultimately the beauty of what it is to truly know yourself.

Cherubini is ever questioning the Human condition of Belief and Heart, taking the Sacred with the Painful. He skillfully invites us to ponder the mystery of depth and thought in Human Relationships, in this vast myriad of complexity within our Longing, as he issues a plea for tolerance, kindness and introspection. Along with strong encouragement to ask ourselves to know the experience of our Dark and Light past our superficial familiarity. This is a courageous book for those who desire to know the deepest facets of the essence of their Beings. The author himself encourages us - "to live with inextinguishable hope- and suspend contingency to pursue ALL that is possible. Cherubini's wonder knows no limit, his curiosity opens the reader in a most personal way. Every aspect is up for investigation, compelling the reader to take stock of their own patterns of behaviour, looking for Spirit to mediate truth. We are left to answer the question, "Is it possible to weave the tapestry of Life, while unraveling the threads of Mystery. A Disruptive Cadence, a line from Cherubini's new book, would have made a great title. Not because the work leans toward the philosophical, but because each line is like a strummed chord. Some harmonize, others jam through social and personal commentary that moves without metaphor. Does it work as poetry? McLuhan believed the alphabet was a series of metaphors, and letters form words. Perhaps, it may depend on a disruptive cadence.

This offering packs a philosophical punch in every poem. They are filled with clever and playful lines, delivering up wisdom out of imagery. It is a journey through hidden answers for every grieving soul reborn in light.   Roethlein doesn''t waste words, and the ones he chooses in his prolific poetry writing are worth stopping to re-read. He has a delightful sense of humor and an innate sense and kinship for unrequited loves, there are so very many brilliant passages in this book it will delight and warm any reader.''

 Bless that man! In 1969, Max Yasgur rented out 600 acres of his farm near Bethel, New York to the largest gathering of youth ever in history. He was happy to host, what he thought, would be about 50,000 young people on his farm. Instead, Mr. Yasgur, ended up shocked; 500,000 hippies showed up to celebrate freedom, love and music on his land. We were a lost and unhappy generation of teenagers. Many of us had run away from home, and many had no home to go to. We started taking psychadelics to escape and in our escape, found many inner treasures, which Ioana Cosma has captured beautifully in this poetry; a deep understanding of what this generation was searching for.  Three glorious days of love, peace and music; we were in heaven! Some of the biggest and best rock and roll bands played, while hippies dreamed and swayed in the field: The Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin with her raunchy, drawn out vocal chords; Richie Havens, and so many more who are looked at today as Rock and Roll idols of the past. We showed the world peace was possible. We showed the world how much more beautiful and free life could be. Our youth came out of Woodstock with a dream to change the world!! It was an era unlike any other mankind had or has since experienced. The psychological and emotional growth was exponential ... it was as if we had stolen this wisdom from a future time. We wanted to share it, but adults did not want to listen. We lived, loved, made music, made love, built communities we called communes, and we learned to live together in a supportive and loving way. Those of our generation who did not sell out to corporate America on down the years, still await the coming of this world we know was possible. Instead, they ignored us. Though they ignored us, we brought forward with us a word that would bring us the peace of meditation; a word that would remind us always of how close we came to building the society we dreamed of; a word that could take us back to this way of being within us whenever we wished to visit ~ and this word is Om.

Fiszer often uses dialogue with her father's words describing his Nazi camp experiences during World War 11, and his deep love for her mother.

In the last section Fiszer describes her mother's life when the Warsaw Uprising began, incorporating some entries from a journal her mother kept during that time when she was in several war camps. The strong love Fiszer and her mother shared for each other is revealed in a variety of poems, many based on dreams she had and continues to have of her mother after her death.
