Suspending the Muse addresses issues regarding the authentic article of living in the present. It is an adventure into the unknown where the mind leaves the body to unearth what is concealed. There is a meaningful focus on redeeming time past through time present as time future becomes a grain of sand leading to an enlightened house of many rooms.In this poetic work, author Dean Gardner uses dazzling wordplay and vivid imagery to pay homage to the artistic muse, that elusive spirit whose visits inspire great works and whose absences haunts those who create.It isThat it was destinyThat brought himTo the thresholdOf the beyondThrough a portalFound in the third eyeOf the museShe led himTo the powerOf The Spirit of TruthAllowing himTo goBeyond phenomenal realityAs the celestial clocksYieldedTo a parabola of timeAnyone who has pursued creative ventures will understand this look into the muse’s journey. Suspending the Muse is a quest for comprehension in the face of the unknown as self and muse battle with nothingness. It is an overture to postmodernism in both form and substance.
