Also-Rans Carlo E Ravin

We've all been deeply moved by our lovers, sometimes to the point of a poetic outpouring. And then the time comes and the relationship ends and we're left only with words on paper, seemingly written to no one, signifying nothing. Yet do these words have any staying power? Are they just faded memories or sour grapes if we continue to hold them near and dear? Or might it be possible to celebrate the emotions that once propelled these words to page, and gift it to others? In this spirit arrives Also-Rans, intended to illustrate to the gentle reader that once a relationship ends, all need not be lost. Join poet-astrologer Carlo Ravin on such a journey as he follows up his first book, Love Conquers All - Odas y Poemas for the Aquarian Age - with this offering to all who have loved and lost. Enjoy the fancifulness of one person's experience that sharing memories, both fond and otherwise, can be transformative and tantalizing, renewing us as we move forward to a new day.
