Exploring psychological trauma, the long poem delves into the author's midlife crisis, sparked by the Indonesian massacre of 1965 and the struggle to articulate his horror. Through interviews, it examines themes of violence in American society, east-west relations, and the duality of the human experience. The writing process serves as a means to confront and recover suppressed memories. Additionally, it reflects on the quest for right action, drawing inspiration from the Bhagavad Gita and the Gospel of Thomas, emphasizing the transformative power of self-expression.
