These represent a few of the questions, a few of the worlds gathered here in this collection of poems portraying the differing spheres of life, from love and sensuality, to the tragic loss of an iconic world landmark, to questions of justice and injustice, mortality and transience, and spirituality..What does Communism have to do with a burnt out sandwich shop in South Carolina? Another question that you will find in A Gathering of Worlds.
