About
"Ordinary Mornings of a Coliseum is a "broken fantasia" that addresses humankind's struggle with spiritual engagement. Backdropped by politics and religion, Dubie's poems search for independent, individual meaning through the lives of visionaries and eccentrics such as Meister Eckhart, Rumi, the Tibetan Tashi Lama, mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan, and the Egyptian recluse Cyril. "I adore how they are all ignoring us," Dubie writes, "with an absolute genius like snoring." However distant these figures may seem, Dubie presents them as intimate, fragile voices that we recognize as being strangely familiar to our own ordinary lives."--BOOK JACKET.
