{"product_id":"9780972642972","title":"A Space Imagined","description":"First introduced as \"Spirit Poems\" a decade ago, this renamed version of 22 elemental poems entitled \"A Space Imagined\" is POWilson's introductory chapter to his reoccurring MIDDLE VIEW theme. In it, he writes about a meditative state of imagining the space we are in, leaving it open and letting life come in. Awareness of the space around us, as well as the space beyond is an ever present direction that the poems invite the reader to dwell in. And as in all of Wilson's art, this dwelling is full of honesty and hope. \"a life lived simply, purely.... without pretense\".\u003cp\u003eFor those familiar with Wilson's musical composition, \"Clear as a Dream\", this collection of poems is reminiscent of his talent as a songwriter and lyricist. Melodies he composed have been translated here into words that \"sing in the night sky the melody the sky is singing.\" These stanzas all speak to Wilson's talent of putting words onto the pages that bring notes of pure joy to this space imagined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- a space imagined\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI held each thing to be everything, all and left broken\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethis place not filled takes things in but cannot hold them\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethose things, other, away that could not stay their promise like a stone falling in a gesture to a phrase\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eloving flees to an empty room still not ready to confess;\u003cbr\u003ethe realization of a dream is the end of a dream\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003espace is nothing some have said but when I need room\u003cbr\u003eI imagine it, first inside my head then larger in steps until it takes all in there is no need to hold anything in a space imagined\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eeverything imaginable,\u003cbr\u003eis within\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arts Forum, The","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49785269158128,"sku":"9780972642972","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780972642972","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
