Description

What is going on? How do I exist? What is this life? Why do I feel this? What does all this mean? Who am I? Who are you? How can I make sense of the pain, beauty, and joy of this world? …What is going on? Mike Simmo shares his poetry for the first time in this fully illustrated, 160-page, deeply personal collection spanning a decade.

With themes of self-exploration, emotional-processing, divinity in the ordinary, societal commentary, and adventure, Mike Simmo brings to life his own questions and answers letting the reader peer into the inner world of a young man trying to express, share and travel through this thing called Life.

Inspired by the likes of Herman Hesse, Rumi, Aldous Huxley, Terence Mckenna, Alan Watts, Ram Dass, Paramahansa Yogananda, Mike Kewley, Zahir Khan and Steve Taylor and spending significant time in natural wilderness, in football teams, in the events industry, and seeking out a spiritual arc with Krishna Monks, Mindfulness Groups and a Sufi Mystic, Mike Simmo shares in hyper-focused detail the journey of his 20s; from the spiritual seeking, to sobering up, to coming back home to the simple divine ordinariness of every-day life.
