A new mythology that draws from the broadest traditions of myth and legend. It is set within an original and contemporary collection of stories and fables. A poetic anthology of verse that reflects a rare and timeless spirituality. These poems hit hard against the spiritual apathy of the modern world to present perceptively fresh imagery that searches deeply to discover those forgotten values and mystic sensibilities which often lie dormant within both western and other world cultures. These poems combine to create a poetic paean to ancient and modern mythology. We are transported into differing locations and various time-zones through the poetic memoirs of a mysterious time lord. This enigmatic personality, we understand, has both human and angelic qualities. Baladin is presented as an undefined and possibly reluctant, olde world super-hero whose mission it is to appreciate and identify with humankind in all its vulnerability and weakness. Baladin achieves this by arriving and contributing to human society at often extreme, unusually niche moments of history. All the while chronicling his observations as a mystic, poet and dramatist in a journal or legend. ‘This ‘Dream of Baladin’ in its several parts forms a poetic odyssey; a metaphor of life and the human condition with all its complexities and idiosyncrasies; an omnibus of apparently random, sometimes hazy recollections that are detailed within a collection of poems & mythical tales. Baladin, in looking back upon his extraordinary life, is finally prepared to divulge some of his uniquely visionary perspectives on humankind within a poetic Dream.
