The book consists of two hundred new poems from David Sanders, including You Have Become Inside of Me. You have become inside of me. There is no moment when it became. Like a raindrop that falls into sea You have become inside of me. I no longer understand the shame. We have a passion that has burst into flame. Two men who love do love the same. You have become inside of me. Silently, endlessly, I hear your name. Like a whisper that ripples in the sea You have become inside of me.

This book links cattle to the construction of cursus monument sites. It suggests that these monuments commenced life as a form of cattle management prior to their possible ritual importance. As such it is an original and important contribution to the cursus monument ‹enigma› debate. Previous cursus monument studies have tended to focus on the construction or post-construction phases of the monument rather than the practical reasons communities decided to locate and align these monuments wh...

Its separation from religion was, however, never complete and we see the contest continued today not only in the campaigns of religious fundamentalists of the right, but also in the clains of critical intellectuals to reshape government institutions and the legal apparatus in accordance with moral principle - whether of indivudual autonomy or communitarian self-determination. In Anti-Lawye...

Those landscapes range from David Sanders’s native midwestern countryside to the caves of Lascaux and an enchanted lake where relics of lost lives are washed ashore. Yet, the true source of the poems’ vitality is Sanders’s attention to the missed or misread moments, those times when the act fails, and the perce...
