"We sail our paper rafts on lava rivers, hoping laws of nature don't apply to us, that flames do not devour our dreams or give birth to new demons, and we fight to stay afloat long enough to reach the truth." Paper Rafts on Lava Rivers is a book of poetry that not only explores the vulnerabilities of the human spirit but also the power of resiliency and hope. Drawing heavily on metaphor, imagery and character, the poems address topics ranging from parenthood to the classroom, everyday life and world events. The collection documents a journey through an uncertain world of shifting tectonic plates, the trials of lava rivers, and finally, the redemption of fireweed.
