Leaning Toward Knowing

The poetry of author January Handl creates a vivid and endearing image of life's challenges, epiphanies, and moments of knowing and transcendence at the same time returning us to our deepest humanness:

Over and over again we spin in and out of existence and grab onto moments of consciousness.

we finally evolve to know of our deaths,
--and so our lives.

Aware of our minute particle in the weaving of what is beyond hope for the mind to grasp--
the heart leans toward knowing.
