KEEPER of the FLAME

A Message from Tomorrow

These are the hymns and cliff notes of a mystic's journey,
an essence of a message whose time is upon us now.

"the beautiful, often challenging account of seeking and discovery
which defines the essence of Mysticism"

The poems in Keeper of the Flame, bring the reader along a journey to the rare insights mysticism yields about the World, about Life and how we navigate our sense of meaning and existential survival; A work rich in deep archetypal metaphor, and devoid of airy and diaphanous flotsam which we can sometimes associate with mysticism and spirituality.

Rocco Jarman has pressed into service, the English Language, in a way that opens a window onto the beautiful, often challenging account of seeking and discovery which defines the essence of Mysticism. The poems reflect a nuanced understanding of the human psyche that is both troubling and stirringly beautiful, ringing through at times with a sober sense of foreboding, a strident critique of apathy, but also a powerfully rousing inspiration and encouragement. The work is in equal measure both a bitter medicine and source of deep nourishment to the soul without insult to the intellect.
