the syllable that opened an eye micah cavaleri
The poetry of this volume takes us into the bird-twitter language that unravels the most difficult philosophical knots. As readers pass through Mexico, Nicaragua, Greece, somewhere in Africa, China, we feel through the words and spacing and punctuation on the page what is immediately, clearly communicated, rather than working to decode and understand the book’s meaning. The poems demonstrate the anti-philosophy of the opening essay of the first edition in a way revealing what can be called mystical, void of a clear and rigid metaphysics, soaked in language and the very real world.
(This is the second edition, in which the original philosophical essay on the absurdity of metaphysics is replaced by a letter from the author on the reality of inspiration considered against the typical picture of inspiration as visionary, miraculous and determined.)

Witness: A Memoir Scott Rutherford
“I wish to say something about my passage through the world, particularly about the last 30 years. In 1985, when I was 52 years old, I experienced an epiphany. God broke through. I came to know and believe in Jesus Christ. My life was given new structure, new direction, new meaning. I was a convert. What is rather improbable about my conversion was that I knew almost nothing about Christianity.”
ALEPH Reverend Micah Anthony Cavaleri
“Where can I start with a question like that, a nonsense question, except with nonsense? So I asked the Tarot, who is God? And the Tarot gave me the truth, not by magic or by divine command, but by accident. God is the Ten of Wands, Oppression. God is hate and anger and destruction, fire and conflagration. This explains the world. It answers all questions about God.”
And so begins Pastor Cavaleri’s strange wrestling match with the God of Scripture.
Nothing and the Existence of God Reverend Micah Anthony Cavaleri
“God is the pregnant emptiness on which the world of existence ripples through time. God is the missing foundation. A fountain or a source.
“A fountain, of course, is a thing. This is a metaphor. Nothing is ever actually said about God.”
Pastor Cavaleri leads us through a meditation on the God and Father he seems to know in a deeply personal way. He introduces us to a God who is… Nothing.
Faith and Hope: either/or and not both/and Reverend Micah Anthony Cavaleri
A meditation on the problems of suffering and evil in the world. Rev. Cavaleri asks the difficult questions that his own experience of depression and despair have inspired in his heart. For the most part, there are no answers found in the book, only questions. In the end, Rev. Cavaleri finds a difficulty holding onto both faith and hope in the face of real human suffering today.
