Fire and Smoke

A beautiful collection of poetry and prose by Steve Klein – newly published in 2011. Fans of Steve's other poetry book, Praise in Complaint will be happy to embrace this little book and settle in by the fire with a hot cup of tea and time with our Beloved.
 
If only we could cleanse our hearts
As easily as we clean your tomb.
But with what should we sweep them.
Our tears?
But that is so easy.
And even when we do it,
We remove only the surface dust
Which settles anew each day.
No,
What is needed
Is the scouring Fire
Of living moment to moment
For your pleasure
 
—Steve Klein
