I offer Poems & Prose of Atonement as a literary work intended as a companion volume to the Diary of Atonement philosophical work on identity, a work which challenges the mind to think for itself. The target reader of both volumes is (s)he who finds traditional/conventional thinking wanting, and who hungrily seeks more. The thesis of both volumes is this: that identity is not a oneness (so tradition), but is two-faced-as a paradox. It means that an identity is an atonement, an at-oncement, as at once good and evil, necessarily so, and that identity as such is far, far, more than either of its faces. Poems & Prose of Atonement is an assortment of literary language games bespeaking identity as paradox, its faces of good and evil, and incarnates the abstract ideas of the Diary of Atonement. I invite you to find the book provocative, inviting your criticism, as a mind-challenging exercise in thinking for yourself. And why not?
