A poem unread
subsists on wanting,
a near-constant flux
of non-existence

Jeffrey James Higgins is incredibly talented and interesting… As someone who was never interested in sailing, his beautiful writing made reconsider my position. I can’t wait to read more work by Jeffrey.
Jon Kalantjakos – Remembering
So much jam packed and implied in so few words. It sends the mind wandering and thinking into so many deep concepts and thoughts: reincarnation, man’s tendency to destroy nature and himself, the endless beauty of nature which “reincarnates” rebuilds and saves itself just like the author (and humanity) did by “saving” himelf through reincarnation.
What a beautiful interpretation of our very existence. All told through a memoir. And in the end, the soul remains the same. Excellent.
