{"product_id":"9780972642941","title":"Legends of Ur","description":"\"Even if the search for truth is not the highest call, there is only honesty to lead us through the uncertain\" begins one of POWilson's 21 poems in his book titled, \"Legends of Ur\". Based on the myths that Abram and Sarah, of the Hebrew Bible, carried forward and added to after they left their home in Sumer, Mesopotamia, this collection is a starting point for those who remember those stories from their childhood. Many of Wilson's poems can be found in his nonfiction book titled, \"On the Side of a Fish\" where he writes clearly about ancient stories, handed down over the centuries and documented by people who did not know all that we know in our current times:\u003cp\u003e-here living on\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecertain knowledge is what we want from religion,\u003cbr\u003eand the baby wants milk that comes at a glance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emy legs walk steadily now,\u003cbr\u003eto a place where all of this is history and mostly myth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe tale of two brothers,\u003cbr\u003ethe good one and the bad,\u003cbr\u003eCain and Abel, Jesus and the Devil,\u003cbr\u003eIsrael and Judea, Christian and Jew,\u003cbr\u003ebelievers and atheists,\u003cbr\u003eperfect divinity and absolute evil,\u003cbr\u003ealways a right brother and a wrong,\u003cbr\u003ecompletely off or on, up or down,\u003cbr\u003eever both or neither,\u003cbr\u003eday or night,\u003cbr\u003eno dusk, no dawn, no question,\u003cbr\u003eheaven above, hell below,\u003cbr\u003eever high, ever low,\u003cbr\u003eGod's novel played out in physical form the end already known\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estand in the middle strong here living on, here living on \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA New York City Artist, Poet, Writer and Musical Composer, POWilson lives in Brooklyn, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arts Forum, The","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49785276236016,"sku":"9780972642941","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780972642941","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
