In this new collection of poems, John David Ebert traces the cosmic arc of the fall of a girl from the heavens, her subsequent incarnation on the physical plane, and the various transformations that are inflicted upon her as a symbol of the soul trapped in matter. It is an updating of the Gnostic myth of the fall, sinking and capture of the human soul and its alchemical transformation into a strange new winged being that ultimately soars back to its heavenly origins in the celestial vault amongst the stars.
