'The word ’angel’ means ’messenger’ and the title poem of this book, ’Angels Everywhere, ’ presents the idea that what I often glimpse is a flicker of glancing light, as if a heavenly being is darting in and out of my viewing, allowing me entry into a realm beyond my physical, experiential world--brief revelatory messages from somewhere beyond. I’m hoping that as you read these poems, (more than once, aloud if possible) something like Wordsworth’s ’intimations of immortality’ will enliven your own perceptions of the world as you experience it. Maybe your own fleet of angels will show up!' --Luci Shaw, from the Introduction Angels Everywhere is published under Paraclete Press’s Iron Pen imprint. In the book of Job, a suffering man pours out his anguish to his Maker. From the depths of his pain, he reveals a trust in God’s goodness that is stronger than his despair, giving humanity some of the most beautiful and poetic verses of all time. Paraclete’s Iron Pen imprint is inspired by this spirit of unvarnished honesty and tenacious hope.
