Man, God, Satan, Jesus, and Holy Spirit: Poetic Observations

From Pukiyari Publishers - This book of poems examines the meaning of life, the roots of faith, and the role of the Church. Without denying unresolved problems and seeming contradictions, it moves from an existential perspective of the individual through an examination of teachings about God, Satan, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, and leaves conclusions to the reader." "Milo's book hurtles Christianity into contemporary life, causing us to come to terms with the despair of capitalism and take a fresh look at Christ's message. Through his powerful illustrations and irony, Milo forces us to laugh and gain a different perspective on the power of Christ's message." --James Brandenburg, Jungian Analyst, counselor at San Antonio College, poet, and Co-Founder, Senior Editor of Voices de la Luna "Taking aim at life's ironies, Kearney mixes humor, religion, politics, and historical references to draw the reader into rethinking life's puzzling truths. Intriguing and talented cartoon caricatures grace each poem, adding another dimension. Kearney made me think twice about a lot of things. Really well done!" --Dr. Lawrence Kohler, retired Professor of English, La Universidad Austral, Valdivia, Chile "Delightful and poetic, whimsical, at times penetrating commentaries on the human condition, God and the devil, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in relation to the world today. Ranges from clever word-play to political to homiletic-mini-sermons on biblical texts. Enjoyed the art work that lightens the pages." --Dr. James Zeitz, Associate Professor of theology/religious studies, Our Lady of the Lake University, San Antonio, Texas "A fascinating read." --Don Clifford, author and past President of Rio Grande Valley Byliners "If you seek inspiration in verse, lessons through paradox, and vision by cryptic clarity, you may find it here, but read it again to find deeper meaning." --Tom Emrick, host of Gallista Poetry and member of Ingram Poetry and Jazz Poetry Groups, San Antonio
