With a voice that's inquisitive, wry, cynical, hopeful, intrusive, yet potently human, he distills life's contradictions into lines you'll want to underline and return to: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"She asked if I've ever been to war. I said yes. I was once in love.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Most men are debris of their childhoods.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Rock bottom taught me not to throw stones.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese fragments of insight stand alone, yet together they form a portrait of a mind wrestling with what it means to live honestly in a world of masks, myths, and endless noise. For readers of contemporary poetry, philosophy, and anyone seeking flashes of clarity in the chaos of being human, Nomenclature of an Idle Thought is a reminder that no one is alone in what they think.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e FriesenPress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781038355065\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.37d","brand":"Isheiko Cleare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52107864473781,"sku":"9781038355065","price":15.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_fd05f903-b4f3-4d63-b4c0-3d6a08c97085.jpg?v=1765862788","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/nomenclature-of-an-idle-thought-9781038355065","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
