Genetic Incense

In Genetic Incense, Jeffrey Paul Lee breathes fresh life into the traditional sonnet. He uses a highly conventional form to express unconventional insights into the nature of reality, the philosophy of perception, and the power of relationships.

Laced with humor, cheeky wordplay, and movingly emotional observations, Genetic Incense paints vivid word pictures that relate the author's life experiences to worlds both real and imaginary that surround him. The trivial and the sublime are treated as equal dancing partners. The author offers a challenging and ultimately rewarding worldview that seeks to open new doors and to offer inspiration from, at times, the most unlikely sources.

"And there you stood spellbound, eager and bright in Southwark, on a starry London night."
