EXCERPT FROM UPCOMING BOOK "ANDEAN'S ASCENT"

24 September 2014

Here is an excerpt from the upcoming Joseph Lamm book Andean's Ascent, due next year on Jefferson House Communique/Xlibris.

"The approach to this book is quite different than Bull Headed Saviour", Lamm explains. "I'd written the original story many years ago, but life experiences have brought it to its evolution to its present form, which is an almost dream-like interpretation of a spiritual journey."

The book weaves a mystical form of storytelling with observations and poetry and is a companion to the new studio album Andean's Ascent (music hypnotica), which will also see its release later this fall. Two tracks from the album, "From the Sea" and "A Different Way of Seeing", released in 2010 and 2013, respectively, have seen over 25,000 combined plays, downloads and shares from Jango, iTunes, SoundCloud, Spotify, Rhapsody, and other internet sites around the world.


ETERNAL WAKE

A thousand suns dance over a million dreams,
IMAGINING
They are part of a story.

Bending into the limitless sky,
(Tranquility rests within the veil of their love.)

The voice of the one
BECOMES
The soul of the many,

And the dreams of the many become the story of the one.

A part of us remains when we leave this life,
That part we cherish,
That part we give to others in acts of love.

AN ETERNAL WAKE
Growing out from the uncoiled spirit,
Expanding as it touches new suns
That dance to new dreams.

FOREVER.
