The Dark Ways Mysterious examines the energies—creative, erotic, Promethean—that define what it means to be human, as well as what is dangerous and forbidden. A pastiche of voices and styles spanning the history of art and literature—from Genesis and Sappho to Robert Johnson and Nabokov—it is a poem of pieces that explores “the forbidden creativity/ of the fallen man! the pride/ and science of discovery!”
