In this collection of poems, John David Ebert traces the cosmic arc of the fall of a girl from the heavens, her subsequent incarnation on the physical plane, and the various transformations that are inflicted upon her as a symbol of the soul trapped in matter. It is an updating of the Gnostic myth of the capture of the human soul and its transformation into a strange new winged being that ultimately soars back to its heavenly origins in the celestial vault amongst the stars. This new, fourth edition of Gravity Girl contains artwork by the hypermodern artist Mary Church published in FULL COLOR, and it has been revised with the addition of new poems throughout.
