Poetry is the map for a journey of diversions. From the most mundane to the selectively sublime, these poems cover different inspirations and questions. They are seemingly random, yet all possibly interconnected. There are what-we-should do musings, why-we-know questions, pre-historic and historical meanders, visits to great poetry, celebratory profiles of five wonderful women, unrequited love surmises, glory-of-nature trumpets, and a modern trek through the Inferno (with apologies to Dante) freeing past occupants and finding modern replacements which will please some and offend many others. There is something for the rationalist, the romantic, the scientist, the sceptic, the faithful, the lover, the loved and you the reader however you may call yourself. Pace e salute.
