Chaos & Order

Poems, Volume IV, 1999–2020. 2nd Edition

Can order emerge from chaos? Can hope survive despair?

Chaos & Order explores the fragile balance between disorder and meaning across two decades of writing. Spanning poems from 1999 to 2020, the collection moves through loss, uncertainty, love, civilization, spirituality, and renewal, tracing a deliberate arc from darkness toward reconciliation and transcendence.

Built around syllogies including the “Breakdown” Quadrilogy, “Terror Incognitus,” “Aphasia,” “Centum,” “Sleepwalker,” and “Pietà,” the collection draws on philosophy, religion, mythology, and cultural history — Greek, Latin, Hebrew, and Sanskrit motifs intertwining with contemporary experience.

For readers of philosophical poetry, spirituality, mythology, and contemporary literary verse, Chaos & Order is a meditation on resilience: the conviction that even after breakdown, order can be rebuilt from the chaos of existence.
