Steve Nolan
From the mountains of Afghanistan, to the devastated cities of Ukraine, to the ransacked Capitol of the United States, Steve Nolan takes you on an intimate journey, a portrait of destruction and the human impulse to rise from the rubble to construct a new palace on the ruins of the last. Whether referencing civilization, government, or a single soul, his poetry pays tribute to those who manage to find treasure amongst the shards of a shattered individual life or the shattered dreams of history. In his theme poem, 'The Longest Dream in the World,' he shares this: The longest dream hasn’t died.Dreams are not subject to deathlike ideologies, one stackedupon the archeology of the other-a palace of ruins... The dream,like the wind, is the breathof the world.
