Where the good souls dance S Abbas Shobeiri

S. Abbas Shobeiri is a poet, a painter, a stateless person, and a student of the healing arts who came to the United States in search of political and civil freedoms. His poetry and art cross many traditions and cultures as limitless as the places he has visited during his journey. "Lost Like Me" describes the mental and physical suffering of refugees on the run. His mystical poems such as "God's Anonymous Visit" express the clash between the Divine intentions for man and man's interpretation of those Divine intentions. Some vivid poems such as "Oh God, I Repent", often have themes of death and immortality. His love poems, such as "The Beginning," have a strong confessional style which explores feelings of reduction to anguish and despair before beauty and love can sprout from the ashes. "Rare Moments" is an example of where we most often find the best of humanity, in our books and the arts. Poetry and arts in this book, titled after the memory of a brave friend's battle with cancer, are full of love and friendship both genuine and beautiful. All the proceeds from the sale of "Where the good souls dance" will support the non-profit organizations dedicated to the plight of refugees.
