Esoteric Circles

These are the poetic tales of one manas journey through spiritual and self-exploration using the canvas of excess, love, pain, and religion as a backdrop. Esoteric Circles is a compilation of Benjaminas first two collections of poetry: aThe True Illusiona and aEsoteric Circles.a The first of the two, aThe True Illusiona (1995-1998), is the darker of the two collections. It steps outside the normal conventions of lyrical poetry and creates a pace and rhythm all its own. Abstract imagery combined with beautiful portraits of language and verse bring this collection to life. The second, aEsoteric Circlesa (1999-2003), plays a bit more with traditional rhyme structures as it traces the development of Benjaminas unique writing style. Wonderfully rich and abstract, this collection travels the dimensions of emotion as Benjaminas journey to experience everything both inside and outside his body is painted by his poetry.
