This Ancient Ritual contains poems collected from 2008--2013 on becoming a Poet, on following the Poetry Path, and on the powers, challenges, perspectives, opportunities & energies associated with this ancient role -- more important perhaps, than even most poets realize.  This book also includes poems from Wild Milky Way Wilderness and Powers -- both of which appear in Emergence & Other Poems.
