Across the Rim

By Ben Folk

Time is an illusion we have all wept and laughed. We exhaust ourselves with tales of predators and heroes. From time to time, a soul rises up not so much against the tide but rises up above it and thus becomes a master creator and illusionist while transcending this heated transom we call Planet Earth if not the entire physical universe.

It gives me great pleasure to introduce a gentleman of gentle bearing and strength, whose words surpass these illusions.

Ben Folk is such a writer and poet that his words are like stars that drift the night and twinkle at those who behold their meaning and emotional impact.

Furthermore, I have the additional pleasure to introduce you to Ben's fine volume of 30 poems. Ben not only will delight you with his words but the anecdotal notes at the end will provide refreshing post-introductions to each of the poems to further enhance your enjoyment. Each poem is followed by a set of notes. These notes portray the state of mind that the poet was experiencing prior to documenting it in poetic form.
