Chronic Conundrums is a collection of modern poetry inspired by 20 years of living in the nuclear age. The style can be considered Nuclear-age Romanticism; and the subjects vary from the very serious to lighthearted. It is spiritual without being religious, it is introspective without being self-centered, and it is surprisingly entertaining without being pretentious. This collection of poems has been twenty years in the making and reflects the transitions of life and cyclic nature of time; as well as providing some tongue-in-cheek breaks and lighter subjects along the way. There are poems about love and hate, joy and pain, desire and loss, life and death, nature and technology, as well as a host of others. The subjects range across the spectrum of human reflection on the very nature of experiential living. The book is more than a mere collection, however, and represents an intriguing puzzle through the content, layout and construction itself.
